Description
Beekeeper working on a hive frame. The photograph is of a beekeeper showing just his hands in special beekeeper gloves to pretect him from bee stings. He is securing honey comp into a new frame. The honey bees had build comp in the wrong place. By carefully removing the comp and putting it into empty bee hive frames the bees don't have to rebuild the cone. They will repair and secure the comp to the frame in no time and fill in empty spaces around it with new comp. Some beekeeper would simply remove the comp and make the bees rebuild in the empty frames. It is kinder to preserve it and allow the bees to use what they already worked so hart to build.
