Saw a post on the neighborhood community group about a large presence of bees. Usually this is yellow jackets or just a particularly tasty garden… but not this time! Swarm captured!
Very gentle ladies and very cooperative. A few scouts and stragglers could not be persuaded, but confident I got the queen and a very high percentage of her the swarm. It’s only a quarter mile away from my apiary so I’ll swing back by with a small box just in case, as soon as I get this chonker of a swarm to its new home.
