Time to feed pollen, too

Attended one of Captain Tony Hogg's workshop this morning and decided to add Mega Bee pollen in liquid form to my feeding. I mixed up 2 cups of sugar with one cup of water and added a little bit more than a quarter cup of Mega bee. It's the first week of February. There's another 5 weeks before the last anticipated frost. We had sleeting weather last week, and now nearly 70 degrees today. All three hives are doing well, but I've not gone into any of them. The hive at the farm is bringing in pollen, so even though it appeared hot last week, it is most likely Queen right. The two at the house are very active is well. I will take off sometime this week to go into all three of them to assess where we are.
