Is this at the peak of the season? The average size of the feral colonies I
collect in mid-summer is 6 - 10 lbs of bees.

Well, Waldemar, may I ask how many bees you figure is in a pound of bees today in the feral/swarms gathered? What is averge number of bees in a given pound? Same for number of brood in a given area layed up......1) worker.....2)drone? Have these numbers changed too?
