    I did a day club meeting in one county and a night meeting in another county. No time for swarms today. Nice swarm, tho. Congrats.

    Thank you Gents...



    This was great for me to watch from beginning to end, I just happened to be in the yard when they swarmed.

    The toughest part was trimming all the thorns out of my way...

    They always ask and would love to... Childrens Bee siuts are too expensive for our budget at the moment
