First Season Swarm

1/26/2017

0 Comments

 
Mission Hills Nursery had a swarm capture last week that Barbara made in the rain.  Yesterday the nursery called with another swarm that was 2' away from the first in the decorative planters.  As I was putting it in the wooden nuc box, a large scattered group of bees  whipped up on the isle 20' away.   They eventually settled down.  It ends up that there is a third swarm clustering around one of the 5 gallon rosemary shrubs.  It looks like I will be having another capture tomorrow.   There must be news among the bees about the Nursery's fabulous location.

    Bees originally invited me into beekeeping when I was completely surrounded by a wonderful buzz while pruning a blooming palm tree.  I've been with them ever since.
