Subject: Big bee weekend

Tom & I found on Saturday that we had lost a hive, but had a box of honey frames left behind...spent lots of time cogitating over whether to buy a package or split our good hive, and how to extract the leftover honey. Then on Sunday all questions were answered when there was a swarm down the street!  Put the swarm in a nuc with some of the dead girls’ frames, lots of neighbors joining in.  
 
The swarm didn’t leave their home by choice so much as circumstance – they were in part of a tree that fell down recently. Then the owner cut up the log and took out the honey comb. So these guys (girls) probably didn’t get a good feast before taking off. Don’t know if they’ll have much of a chance of surviving the rest of the cold weather, but it was lots of excitement & sent us into a deep state of bee brain.
 
Just wanted to share the news with a beekeeper! Have a good class this week.
 
Angie
