Moving Day For Bees

I took the pics mid-day today, Sat the 13TH. I added a hang-over top to keep the rain away from the entrance as I have the brood box tilted to the back to prevent the loose honey from running to the front and clogging up the entrance. Later in the afternoon I noticed bees with pollen in their sacs trying to squeeze through the front screen. With this news, my mentor advised me to go ahead and remove the screen because the queen had put the crew to work in the new quarters. The bees have already cleaned up the opened log.
