I was just a little late getting to this hive. But at least I got them back.

The march is on. Now that's a big swarm. Every bee keeper loves watching these big swarms march into the box.

Got called out to a good size swarm today

The swarm season has begun

Another swarm season will be here soon to our area. If you see a cluster of bees hanging on a limb (or other object), you need a beekeeper, not an exterminator, flamethrower, water hose, or bug spray. Please message me or call a beekeeper, local beekeeping club, police department, or a similar organization. Many of them will gladly direct you to a beekeeper who would be happy to pick up these bees and give them a good home.
Side note: Swarms are quite literally homeless bees. As such, they are not defending a hive, and are usually quite docile. But that doesn't mean you should mess with them unless you know what you're doing. Leave it to the experienced folks. And if you see a beekeeper running, please get out of the way, and do try to keep up.

The bees are very active today. Bringing in pollen from maple trees already meaning spring is about to take off soon

I went out yesterday on a rescue mission to save these bees from a tree that was cut down in 60°weather. And this morning I wake up to a 23° and snow
