Interesting day

Two of the rangers have beehives for honey. One of the hive's bees were "swarming". That means they left the hive and are flying around in a small black cloud. Grrrrrross! The have settled on a tree and the guys have suited up and are going to either shake them out or smoke them out. Pretty scary either way. I left - just couldn't watch!!! Here is a picture is the swarm in the tree.

Somehow they got the queen to go into the box - set the box at the foot of the tree and the bees are all flying to the box. Now Jason has two hives.

How interesting.
