Isn't this a bit earlier than the past few years? Last year our swarms started in the 2nd week of April, it was a week later the year before that. But this is just my 3rd year, so what do I know. :D

My swarm season usually begins late February, early March.

I don't think ours is until after the last frost. Which will hopefully be this week. Then I'm thinking about inspecting and doing some splits with any queen cells I find.
I've picked up 3 in the last week alone...off to a great start!
