We were called this afternoon to a small hamlet near to where we live to collect a bee swarm. Alas, the swarm had formed up on the ground, making collection very difficult. We thought we got it into the swarm box and left it to settle, returning 3 hours later to find no bees in the box and the swarm had reformed on the ground again.
We redid the process and hopefully this time we have caught the swarm. We will know for sure tomorrow when we return - at 5.30am!
