Hello All,
The swarm on the ground was queenless when ran through the excluder. I hived
and added a Russian queen I had raised.

Heard by me over the years from people when hiving a swarm>

"Are you sure you got their leader"

An old farmer in his eighties said the above. I live on a livestock farm.
Each group of animals has a leader. I guess the old farmer felt a "leader"
has strayed the group of bees from the hive.

"How many times do you get bitten?"  One person said she was told you get
bitten by a bee and stung by a wasp.

Bob
