thanks for the smile!!

What a great mental image you painted for me! Glad it wasn't any worse.

Fantastic shots! Please keep sharing them. Methinks you are a patient man.

Julie, That was fascinating! The bees that are interacting with her as she's hatching...do you think there is some purpose, or are they just bumping into her randomly?

I would love a swarm, but I am not experienced enough to perform a capture and sadly I'm far from the gal in Dillon.

Right..I actually had hive built from goldstarhoneybees plans lol. They are out of bees too. :(

We had hoped to begin beekeeping this year but are getting a late start because we had friends flooded out in storms some weeks ago and that put everything else in life on hold. We have finally got our top bar hive in place, but now I'm finding that bee packages are sold out everywhere I look...

Check on craigslist in your area see if local beekeepers who advertise swarm removal. Also check Florida beekeepers association for local contact. A beekeeper would love the swarm!

Yay for you! I'm trying to get started, but I don't know if I'll make it this year. Hope your new residents love their home!

How exciting! Love your hive boxes :)

Wow! What great timing and great pictures! Congratulations

That's the one I was looking at! Is it sufficient to prevent getting stung on your head?

Thanks for the quick response! Let me try another question. ..in looking at bee suits, I see some with a sort of built-in safari style hat and veil and others that just have a sort of curved hood, with no apparent built in hat. Do you have an opinion on suit styles?

Hi I am in the info gathering stage of my beekeeping journey! I hope to place my hive (s) out near my chicken coop which is a converted 4 stall horse stable. I see many carpenter bees around the coop/stable and wonder if they present a problem for honeybees. Thanks in advance for any info!
