May 14, 2010 Exterior Wall Removal (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWbU-bDcgSU#ws)

One correction: it took 3 and 1/2 hours not 4 and 1/2 hrs. Very gentle bees.

Starting to get the hang of things with the new camera and new computer. I have two other videos I will be putting on youtube soon. One is a swarm catch, the other is a cut out from a work trailer.

Thanks for the kind words folks. If you only knew!  :-D The other videos I made I videoed short clips at a time, much easier to edit. Believe it or not this video you see here I edited from 88 minutes of footage. I will never just let the camera "run" again.

I like the video man good job! But, at the end you cut your head off from the scene . Or maybe you didn't want to steal the show from the real stars of the video j/k

Still getting to know the camera Keith, but having fun in the meantime. The tripod was definitely the way to go.

How you doing?

JP I was just giving you a hard time the video was great, heck i saw some things you did that i always struggled with. So i learened something from it.

I am doing ok. I remember the heat from before but it is still just brutal. Its tough to get used to a hair dryer always blowing in your face :-D. Mainly i am just ready to get back to the new wife and get my life back rolling. anyway all in time

Outstanding video JP. They sure do look calm. It sure shows that you have done cut outs before.
The video was also done very well.
Thank you very much for sharing all your experience with all of us!

Just wanted to ask y'all a question. I'm editing down the videos because I don't want to bore people with too much footage. So how am I doing? Some could be longer but I'm not sure if people would sit there for longer. What y'all say?

Wow this takes your sharing to a new level. Extremely informative videos. I like the length of it.

But tell me JP why my computer keeps stopping in the middle and starting again. Is there some kind of setting I need to do on my mac??

Sweet video.  Keep it up and keep recording.  I cant believe you did not wear your veil.

I think that you are doing a great job JP. You seem to have the feel for how long to make them. They are all fantastic to watch. It is really interesting to see your approach to each situation.
Thanks for taking the time to make them and share them with everyone.

I agree with the rest,--- very nice.  I appreciate you sharing, I am thinking about starting to do cut outs , and ifo like this is great.  They look like a lot of work, most of the time.

Now how could you possibly consider it work? 4 to 8 hours in a hot bee suit, 85 to 95 degrees, working on a ladder, or above your head, honey dripping on your head and down your back, bees too thick to remove your veil and take a drink of water.

I mean, really, it is more like a vacation than work, and you get a 1000 dollar swarm of endangered bees to boot. How could you possibly complain?

JUST ASK ANY HOMEOWNER THAT NEEDS IT DONE.....................................

JP, last year I did 2 removal, using rubbers to tie comb to the frames just like you do. Here id the problem: the bees only live and breed on the original frames; they don't touch the frames with plastic foundation. What can I do to make them move into the plastic cell?
Thanks

Buy plastic bees...........................................................

Otherwise, use wax foundation.
