a swarm of honey bees, July 4, 2008


 A swarm of bees is seen in a tree near the bee yard.


 We work with the bees and shake them into boxes that are placed right underneath.


 The swarm has a new home. The next day, we will check for a queen, and then begin the process to move the hive a few feet to the right each time we work with them. This will return the hive to where we want them to be permanently based. If we moved them move then this, some many bees would be lost and not able to find their way home.
