Drop With The Chain Saw

In my shirt sleeves. Settled on a tree limb. Now in a new hive body on new beeswax.  Nice gentle Italian swarm.

They should move on in a couple days .

 That is pretty cool. Never seen one.

Bees have settled in. Carrying pollen into their new home, this morning.

Looked out my front window, the sky was full of bees . Used the chain saw to settle them onto the same tree limb the other swarm lit days ago on.  Twos a charm.

I saw my first bee of the year but it was a bumble bee . We need the honey bees for pollination !

How do you not get stung?

Swarms are in search of a new home. With no hive to defend, their less likely to sting.

Decided to build and replace some of my old bottom  boards with this heavy duty version.
