We normally try to sort out the comb and attach it into frames to assist the girls but this one was more like a rugby ball than anything so I decided to put it in as it was so they can be moved to a safer home :)

When one of your tough, rugged engineers comes into your office saying "hey Pete you do bees don't you!!! Can you help this one??" as he cradled a little bumble lady in his hands :)

These conifer girls were super quick to get indoors :)

These ladies caused quite a stir when they landed on someones conifer, with great insight the homeowners daughter called me and whikst i was cooking dinner managed to pop out and get them all aiming into the nuc ready for relocation :)

Another swarm call last week from a family that i had a swarm from last year and again earlier this season, with repeated swarms landing in their garden they did some detective work and found a "beekeeper" with a hive in the garden that backs onto them :/ poor swarm management on their behalf means i get a good swarm or two :)
