GARDNER APIARY! Part 2 of 2 with a quick look inside and an incomplete recap (phone overheated)

I finished mowing and weedeating around these hives. The bees came out in full force. This time of day, I really should smoke them before I run a lawnmower or weedeater around them.
I think the yard looks nice now and should be a little easier to keep up. This will mark expanding a lot easier in the future.
The hives are FULL of bees. Some boxes have frames of comb with a few bees. I could pull them off, but I’ll let them stay because I won’t be coming out here as much and I feel the population will increase pretty quick based on the amount of brood I saw.
