To the List, I have noticed, talked to other beekeepers, and have also learned at several different bee meetings about an unusual amount of small fall swarms here in North Carolina and Southern Virginia. Such occurrences here are quite unusual and they seem mimic in some cases usurpation activities. In other cases, they hang on trees and are difficult to hive. Any similar happenings with folks on the list and if so where are you located, how large are the swarms and what is their behavior?
