Poles houses

Pole houses present a challenge.  The poles that hold the house up are in the corners, the bees like to build in corners.  These bees built way up in the house and with the pole in the way John had a hard time reaching them.  We had to hold a piece of cardboard under the comb and catch it when John scraped it out and it fell.  These bees were so gentle and calm. If they survive they should be a great hive.  All the comb they built, they did in just 3 weeks.
