Maryann Frazier, a researcher who assists with the club, instructs members on how to split the hives.
A look inside the hive from above when the top is removed shows bees busy at work
Members attempt to light the smoker by piling wood shavings into it. The smoke disorients the bees, allowing easier access to the hives with less risk of being stung.
The hive is inspected for honey. Honey is hidden under the white layer of wax covering each hole.
The inside of the beehive where the bees are depositing pollen and storing honey or larvae. Each slat in the hive has a honeycomb on it.
