This was a new experience for me. A swarm of honeybees gathered in one of our trees. Andy's uncle came over with his bee suit and beehive box and got them out of the tree and into the box. Thank goodness! I'd rather buy honey at the store then to have a 1,000 bees in my backyard producing it. I'm a scared of getting stung!
But it was a very interesting thing to watch. It's amazing how quickly they gathered and how tightly they hung on to each other and the branch! It's also amazing how much power that queen has! Where she goes, thousands follow. Maybe there is a lot more we can learn from bees then I originally thought!
