Gil has just visited the bees this evening. Hive 1 very quiet - just half a dozen bees visible - absolutely nothing happening at Hive 2. Opened up hive 2 - no more than a third of the feeder had been taken since Sunday morning. Moved away the follower board, and sure enough the bees were still there in a very small clump down at the end. Filled feeder up to the top and closed it up.
Opened Hive 1 - not really much change seen since last visit - still some comb being built around feeder. Gave the bees a bit of syrup (as weather overall pretty bad) and closed up the hive and left them alone.
