A swarm. Swarms happen for several reasons. One is when a hive is strong and thriving it decides it needs more room so it splits. When this happens at one of our apiaries they usually aren't far away and we can catch them and put them into a new hive. We use a range of management techniques and selective breeding to help minimise swarming behaviour and keep the bees in the hive to produce honey for you. . . . . #hives #apiary #pembertonhoneyco #genuinelysouthernforests #catchingswarms #gottacatchemall #Australianbees #australianhoney #beekeeping (at Pemberton Honey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnvKKGcBSVB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
