More Honey

It just gets better and better.

I extracted another super, which gave me another twenty-five pounds of honey. The jars posed for this group photo. The basswood is on the right. The wildflower honey, though not quite as light, is also delicious. So far, forty-five pounds of sweetness.

The extracted frames go back to the bees to fill. Hopefully, there will be more honey to extract in the fall.

This year, they must have been working on another nectar source when the catnip was in bloom. The bees didn't say. They never tell me what they're up to. I guess it's none of my beeswax.
