Nature's Recycling

After draining the honey there is still a little bit left in the wax. 
I set this out by the hive and the bees went right to work getting the honey and usable wax back out.  There wasn't much left when they were done.  Such incredible little creatures.  We ended up with a little over 2 gallons of honey from one super.

Don't you need to leave honey for the bees to overwinter on? Will they starve without that winter honey?
