A bee feeder is mounted beneath the honey board and above the frames in a beehive. Access to the feeder is provided through an opening in the honey board so that food (e.g., syrup) may be introduced to the feeder after removing the outer cover (or roof) of the hive without disturbing the bees. The feeder is dimensioned to be contained within the honey board structure and presents fluid feeds at a trough along one or both edges of the feeder. The bottom of the feeder is sloped to direct fluids to the troughs.
