Catching A Wild Bee Swarm

We were lucky enough to notice when a swarm was moving in to the trap behind our house, and caught the whole process on video!

Amazing how they can do that without a flashing neon sign.

No sign needed, they've got hundreds of bees twerking at the entrance. Enough wiggling ass to entice anyone!

Moving this video to newtboy's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

I did this again this year about a month ago. I heard the swarm land in one of my apple trees and caught and installed them in an empty hive. It’s always nice to get free bees and give a swarm a home.
Yesterday I put the second large super on, they’re doing great. About 8/10 frames full of brood, pollen, or honey in the first super. I may get a third shallow box on this year at this rate.
