Pollen patty time

It's March 6, 2018 and there was a snowstorm yesterday while we were out of town. I took the top off of the hive and pulled back the cloth long enough to put on one pollen patty and two squares of sugar candy.
There were active bees under the cloth and some were bold enough to venture out but I doubt they managed to maneuver back into the safety and warmth of the hive.
Spring is on its way.
I put the cork in the escape hole of the small hive and will disassemble it when it warms up - before pests can get into the honey comb.
