Now Ms Anette, I know you were busy holding up your red umbrella, keeping in the shade while Ray was drinking lemonade.

I just received a call from the property owner, the bees have all come down out of the tree and are in the box. I'll be going up there tomorrow to bring the girls home with all my equipment that was left on the property. :D

Nope, no comb in the tree. It was just a swarm.

Here is a clearer copy of the photo. Not very flattering photo of me with my eyes shut, also in a bee outfit 2 sizes to large for me. The home owner took the photo.

OK, drove over and picked up that swarm. It's a small one, only covers 2 frames. I'll probably just combine it with others here next week when the weather is nicer.
