We had some little visitors in our yard the last several days. Ms. Goofy spotted this swarm of bees perched on one of our compost bins. What should we do? Run for the hills, grab a garden hose or do what most Americans would? We chose the later and Ms. Goofy checked her phone. According to the World Wide Web they would leave on their own. Well they did. I kind of wish they had stuck around. The honey pot is a little low.
You made the right choice. The bees here have been extremely active this spring - the air is alive with their buzzing. Must be a good year for bees.
ReplyDeleteZoomie, I was lucky to get the shot before they left.

ReplyDeleteYou can contact the local beekeepers association and they usually have someone who will come get the bees (possibly for a fee). Leo was on the list for years and picked up a lot of bees in many strange locations (for free). He either kept them for his hives or gave them to other beekeepers.

ReplyDeletePresidentofCookies, We were very lucky to have Leo's honey for all those years.
