This was a work site for a concrete company approximately one mile from the Fedex site. This was the second swarm caught from this trailer within a 3 day period.

I had a chance to visit some of my girls this morning, and they're doing well.  I'd like to try catching up with you on swarms this year. I don't see that happening, but I'd have fun trying!

Looks like they didn't account for the buffet line when they decided how high to set that trailer.  :-D

Again I crack up laughing when you so easily find the queen like it is nothing. There was nothing basic about this swarm catch JP. I will never crawl on the ground to catch a swarm, never, never............OK, I will crawl on the ground to catch a swarm :-D :-D
