It was pretty cool the amount of heat that was being pushed out of the hive when I placed my hand in front of the hive entrance. I can see why a top entrance is so important during the summer.

Yesterday I added an extra super for the bees. There was still frames that were not compleatly full in the second super so I don't think the bees were overcrowded just hot. The extra super should give them some relief.

Has anyone ever placed a top hat on top of their hives?
