Getting ready for winter

The warm weather we've been having in Maine has delayed wrapping and packing the nucs, but I'm finally getting to the last of them.   I'm keeping my fingers crossed that these baby beehives have a nice rest through winter and come into spring strong and ready to grow.

Here are a couple of photos of the nucs at different times this year.
