  Dear List-
   
  
A local farmer has a hive established in an old water tank. There are a couple thousand bees on the outside this noon-time, fanning. Its a warm day. Some bees are even doing the waggle dance, also on the outside. I'll go back tonight to see if they've gone inside.
   
  Question- how could I get the bees and comb out of there, or even just save the queen and enough workers to start a nuc?
