Wohoo just caught another swarm. In the scupture park at the nearby shopping mall. About 3.5 lbs. It was an easy catch too. They were on the ground at the base of a bush. I shook and brushed as many as I could into the box then used the smoker to move the rest once the ones in the box began to fan. Took about an hour all together.
the swarm coordinator here said that she had five calls today which seemed strange as it is a cool drizzly day. Both of us thought that was unusual, don't they like hot days for swarming?
OH Well...
