Caught A Swarm & Gentilly Bees Part One
« on: August 21, 2010, 12:22:13 pm »
Yep, me and Schawee were at it again yesterday. We looked at a warehouse building and a shed that had bees, then we went and caught a swarm.

After that we went to a town in New Orleans called Gentilly. This house is raised up off the ground a good bit and has two colonies. We were only able to remove half of the colony this day.

It was a full day, we had a good time and lunch was good despite what Schawee had to say. He was lickin' his lips yeah!

Oh, and he says he saw the queen first.

Hope y'all enjoy the video!

Someone really ought to tell them that the world of Ayn Rand?s novel was not meant to be aspirational.

I'm thinking ya'll may have a few relationship "issues". Ever thought about counseling? It might tone down the bickering :-D

Scott
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

The bickering is the best part.   It is great to see Schawee back with those eagle eyes.  And I saw the queen first.  I saw her when she fell off the branch on the way to the blanket.   I hope you got all your queen catchers back from him.

This one was fun, fun, fun :-D :-D. I like that technique in catching that swarm and I must remember that next year come swarm season.

Thanks for the good time, you had me laughing. You guys are very funny together. I have noticed that Schawee is getting bolder and bolder in each video you do together. You might have to beat him with the red umbrella if this continues.

Don't hold your breath Irwin, he's been tellin' me "next week!" for three weeks now!  :-D

As for the bickering and counseling, we leave it all on the table, each time we work together. If you keep it all bottled up inside you'll just have a blow out one day.

Can y'all tell we are having fun?  :-D
