To cool off!
The thermometer on the front of the house hit 98 F today, and the max/min in the hoop house is pegged at 128 and 37. Two of my hives are new this spring and still filling up but the big hive needed an army of tiny wings out front, funneling a breeze through the comb. I imagine it also helps evaporate water from the honey in open cells.
