Well I have caught my 3rd swarm this morning at 6:00 am Arizona time.
I am just having so much fun with the girls and I am so excited to be new bee keeper and I have only all of you to thank for all of your help.
Congrats on the captures! Swarming hasn't started yet here in NE Ohio, but I hope that I get lucky once it does!
Shoot man I am told by a lot of vendors at my girlfriends work that they have been smashing them on the windshield a lot lately :( But Hey I have been on 4 bee calls this month and got like 3-4 more to do still coming up....
Wow I think this is going to bee the most fun time Ive had in years.
thanks.

Keep your eyes open! I had 4 hives ready to swarm this week, one did already. They're going to be early this year, I think.

Years ago, I hit a swarm (with an 18-wheeler), when it tried to cross a freeway in CA. I felt bad for the bees. :(
Pics of the swarms are always welcome.
