Another Feed Under Attack!

Fed the two colonies this afternoon. The colony raised from the 'nuc' was very aggressive upon opening the hive to access the feeder. Had an angry attack which left about 5 stingers on my protective clothing. The other colony hardly responded from opening of the hive. The temperament of these bees was absolutely cool. Did not use the smoker in both colonies since I was not undertaking any inspection.
