I recently went on vacation and when I left Ihad a thriving hive. There was
brood and a ton of bees.I even had a honey super
which had honey, but the harvest got delayed because the queen had laid on
several frames, and a couple of other scheduling issues. When I got home the
hive was empty. The bees left (all of them) and took everything with
them.There is no brood, no food and no honey! I found a few dead bees in the
bottom of the hive.

All that is left is a mess created by the squatters that have moved. Any
insight would be appreciated.
