Title: A first for me
Post by: capt44 on May 12, 2013, 01:03:14 AM
I caught a swarm yesterday afternoon and placed them in a Nuc box and set it right in front of the shop not far from the door.
I had some religious folks stop by and they were talking.
One ask if we could go in out of the sun and I said yep shore can and into the shop we go.
Well them folks were wearing cologne and that sweet smell'em stuff.
Weeellllll the bees started checking them out and the folks got all excited and speakin' in some kind of tongue and such.
They were a yell'n and slapping and running hell bent for Georgia.
I mean they were high step'n. :-D
They all baled into the car and said they gotta go.
I just smiled and said "Ya'll come back now" :angel:
They said where can we turn around, I said right there in the front yard but don't get on the grass. lol
Anyhow I don't look for them back anytime soon. :-D
