This species does not form a spiral but the open cells are an simple clue that this indeed is where the new brood cells are being built. In the top box you can see the older brood where the adults are emerging. In tomorrow’s post we show a case of a hockingsi that did not split so well and needed a little intervention to divide the brood. | Sugarbag Bees | Facebook
