Blackberries are in and we picked this morning until it was hot ... Sue Neal took blackberries to neighbors afterwards.
I took sevcn+ supers off of three more hives later in the morning which means, we are half way through our hives. We will start again later next week to finish up. We are storing the honey in 5 gallon buckets and so far Sue Neal and I have extracted 600 pounds. The hives we have left are generally not as strong so we are over half way done considering supers only. Started the clean up this evening but will finish picking up all the newspaper in the morning.
Sitting on the porch this evening now that it has cooled off ... hundreds of lightning bugs in the field behind our house. The bats are out and we are waiting on the Barred Owls and coyotes to start up.
