Things: A Window Mounted Observation Hive

摘要

An observation hive makes an interesting and educational addition to your home, but not everyone cares to share their living space with a colony of honey bees. This observation hive stays outside, mounted to a window frame. You can watch the colony activities from the comfort of your home, but the bees stay outside.This design uses six medium {6V*") frames, two deep. The larger number of frames helps the bees control their temperature more easily. You can watch the bees store nectar and pollen, and see the brood develop and emerge. The hive interior can be accessed quickly and easily from outside for stocking with bees and cleaning.
