So the 911 dispatch operator calls to say there are bees at such and such location stinging everyone in sight.
Followed by a call from one of the business owners at this location who says bees are not stinging anyone.
Bees were nice and gentle, about 4 lbs or so worth.

and here I was happy that I was getting two days above 40F in a row.
That has to be the biggest swarm photo Ive seen. Still too early here for swarms but I know they are coming. Too bad I cant keep any more hives.

Once again, go JP! Hey, like the honeycomb emblem on your truck & now we have your phone # :evil: heh heh heh!! I love the pic with their little bottoms fanning on the hive! J
Those are nice we finally have some tulips that started blooming. I kind of hope it stays cool until my bees get here so they have something to gather.
