Taking Notes
A common trait shared by good beekeepers.
No matter what type of hives you use, or beekeeping methodology you follow, one common trait shared by good beekeepers is TAKING NOTES, so they can later reference them themselves or can use them to ask other beekeepers for interpretation.
See below for the Hive Inspection Forms provided by EMBA.

The EMBA Hive inspection sheet is 2 pages. The front for making
acute observations, and the back for making graphic representations.
