I got a video of the bees in the tree in the front yard.

There was a hive in a tree close to where I work. Someone put out a hive to collect the swarm. It worked! The bees are gone now

These bees have been on this place for 20+ years. Dh said they were in the side of the house and he drove them off and they have moved all over this property for years.
They don't bother us so they can stay. I don't want anyone to take them off.

You could move them to a hive and harvest honey from them. I might get a hive some day when I retire

26 swarms just somehow escaped. Pretty careless

from what I could remember a helper removed the Queen guards....

Hi Neighbor!

Welcome from Woodland. It sounds like you have a great place and good job adding some protection from the predators

Thanks for the welcome. Hot ain't it?

Yes! I got the yard work in before noon today...Nearly had heat stroke!

I quit when there was so much moisture in my eyes that I could not see.

Yard looks nice though...A neighbor complimented it.

It is 97 currently and tomorrow says 100. 102 on Tuesday
