Great video, I like the way you were holding the bees to look for the queen. Thanks for the info on bananas. I had been making sure that I don't eat bananas before I worked with my bees.

Great video!  It's always fun to see people sitting in the middle of bees like that when they're all over the place!  I love my girls but I'm still not quite that comfortable.

The lady behind the camera sounds all reved up for sping!
