A 4th super for hive 1

This afternoon I finally found time to make up another 9 frames and to put the super onto "hive 1", which formerly had 3 supers on. Good. Now I'm out of spare supers. The photo shows "before".

The new super goes below the top 2 supers. I couldn't put it under the top 3, as number 3 still has brood in it from having the queen there until last week.

Hive 1 looks pretty wonky in that photo. It isn't quite that wonky in real life, though I may get round to straightening it sometime. The photo also shows that the bits beyond are rather overgrown...
