Swarm 5-2-2015

Post by ski »

Found this nice swarm in a peach tree in front of my hives.

As I was planning on getting some equipment together another swarm issued from a small hive and landed in the peach tree.

So I got the big one.

and gave the smaller one to my neighbor.

It was a one tree two swarm day. We got both of them and tonight they have new homes.
Just some thoughts.

From what I saw you didn't have a small one.
