When the BeesGo Marching In. Swarms are often a fairly simple process to collect for a beekeeper. If they settle on a low hanging branch, it can be as simple as cutting the branch, then placing it in the box with the bees. Or even shaking them vigorously into a box or nuc. But when they are camped out on the lawn, it sometimes is a little more difficult. These bees did gather on a branch but the 2.5kg weight was a bit too much. And the branch was slumped over with some of the bees clinging on. I assumed, or at least hoped, the queen was still attached to the branch. So after a quick prune, I placed the branch in the box. The other bees, about 50%, were left on the grass. And although I didn't see the queen, I knew she was there. Because as you can see with this time-lapse video, the bees were marching towards the box to join the colony. . . . #beeswarms #bees #swarms #beefacts #nature #saveourbees #flowers #honeybee #beekeeping  #flower #love #beehive #pollinators #garden #bugs #animals #organic #apiary #pollen #therealqueenbee #hive # time-lapse  #spring #beautiful #sydney #marchingin (at Mascot, New South Wales) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnnetDUHCBm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14qm4rgkbbg4y

Another day another Swarm. We just collected this swarm this afternoon from a backyard a few kilometres away. The neighbour has a backyard with one bee hive so I suspect these bees have swarmed from just over the fence. very gentle easy to handle piece of cake. It's the first real warm day of spring today in Sydney after a lot of rain in the last few days. so no doubt it's triggered swarm season . .. #saveourbees #lilypilli #beeswarms #bees #swarms #beefacts #nature #savethebees #flowers #honeybee #beekeeping  #flower #love #beehive #pollinators #garden #bugs #animals #organic #apiary #pollen #entomology #art #hive #hymenoptera #spring #beautiful #sydney  (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnfz5gDn9qX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bauuy004v9xa

Bee Swarms and Everything YOU Need To Know. There are different types of bee swarms and many characteristics of a swarm. Over the past few years in particular, we have collected many bee swarms. And we have witnessed very different situations and often asked many things about this wonder of nature. So we decided to put together a list of the who, what, where, how and why bee swarms. Go to our blog (link in bio) to see answers to 50+ questions we are often asked. . . . . #beeswarms #bees #swarms #beefacts #nature #savethebees #flowers #honeybee #beekeeping  #flower #love #beehive #pollinators #garden #bugs #animals #organic #apiary #pollen #entomology #art #hive #macro #hymenoptera #spring #beautiful #apidae #sydney  (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnarqbQnJ8N/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1s0ppderfuav6
