It amazes me that these hives aren't even scorched from the fire burning so closely. You can see the deep box followed by a shallow on the bottom of the stack. That is the hive I was telling you about. The supers are the boxes above that.
In total we lost 80 bee hives in this one location. Right now with the honey and beeswax on the hives they are worth about $300.00 each. Each hive was stacked about as high as the ones shown here that didn't burn.
