While looking at the hives this morning, I heard a queen piping and another one quacking in the same hive. Any advise as to what to do or look for when I go in to inspect. Should I get ready to split or did they already swarm? It is a stong colony with 3 supers. Any advise would be greatly appreciated!

Now all you have to do is get them through the winter. Seems like a never ending worry cycle.

Glad things got back on track for you.

in the second video it is faint but distinct, sounds like a dirt dauber building a nest.
