Thank God for second chances!  Yesterday turned back to normal "winter" 
around here with a biting north wind despite the sunshine, and a high only 
in the 50s, with possible freeze overnight.

A neighbor called at mid-afternoon with the exclamation, "We've got bees in 
our yard! Please come and take them!"

So - for the skeptics, here are photos and high definition videos of the 
two-day event, which led to the hiving of this huge swarm at last.
