Took advantage of unseasonably warm weather today - 60s and sunny - no snow! - to check the winter survivers. Six of the seven hives have made it so far! All the clusters were at the top of the upper deeps so they are pretty much out of honey - fed MegaBee patties which is all I had available. Seventh hive was a September swarm that did not stand a chance and looks like it died out early on.
Will try to get out to the island in two weeks to start spring feeding.
