Oh my. I've not been in my hive to check on them to see how they were doing. Apparently they were doing too well and needed more space. The girls swarmed today. I was outside working in the yard and heard an all too familiar whir and buzz that was coming from the apiary. I looked, and sure enough the girls were swarming. Bees were everywhere flying madly about. All I could do was to stand and watch to see where they would decide to take up temporary residence. Luckily, it was on a low branch. I got one of my neighbors to come over and help me collect the little bundles of joy to put them in a new hive. Hopefully, they will like their new digs and stay put. I'll find out in a day or two.
Now here is a closeup of the little darlings...

Looks like fun!I wouldn't mind putting on the gear and working with bees!I have had bees and wasp land on me and I just sit still until they are ready to fly away!I know better then to swat at them!
So cool. I am so impressed with you! If I ever come to visit, I want to help wrangle the sweet little bees!
