Both hives are started

Yesterday I started the 10-frame medium beehive at my house. It went pretty well for a first-timer. Corissa, Milo, Owen and Essie all supervised from about 20 feet away.





Today I went over to Essie's and installed her bees too. It went very quick and easy. They flew a lot more than mine yesterday. 

When I got home I checked the syrup level in my hive. They haven't used much since last night. The bees were going in and out of the hive a lot, so maybe they're ignoring the syrup and gathering nectar from flowers...
