I've been moving my bees from the orchard behind my house, which is going to
be sold, to my own yard. Every 3 days, I move the hives one foot. The bees
are finding their place. I leave it there for 3 days and then move all the
hives another foot. When they all move relative to where they are, they seem
to find the right hive.
