I have a lot of activity in my hive with a pretty healthy population that seems to have survived the winter. The pollen that was coming into the hive yesterday was a dark green pollen and also a light yellow pollen. There was definitely more of the dark green pollen coming in then the yellow.

There was some housekeeping going on with a dead pupae left on the landing board of the hive. Is that a sign of trouble or just someone who didn't make it? There was only one.
