Swarm--4/2/16

[Jacobs]

I got a call late this afternoon about a swarm on a car in the Walmart parking lot off Hwy 29 North. Stadiem and I went over and vacuumed about a thousand bees from the rear tire and wheel well. From the behavior of the bees in the swarm bucket, there appeared to be a queen. The folks who owned the car were anxious to leave but were very patient in waiting for us to arrive and to get what bees we could. I have this small swarm in a 5 frame medium nuc and they have plenty of room.
