Swarms in Spring !



A lazy Sunday afternoon, but alas bees wait for no man... I mean woman ! (photo taken in May 2012)  Honeybee colonies will swarm .  When the colony becomes overcrowded a large portion of the bees will leave to find a new home.  We beekeepers hope to catch them before they get too far away and give them a new box in our bee yard
