I caught a swarm, a pretty good one, almost the size of a football, 04-22-03
about 8:30 AM It was on an evergreen and I cut the limb, and laid it into a 4
frame nuc. The nuc had only foundation.....2 Pierco and 2 Walter T. Kelley
wired wax. The bees yesterday afternoon 4:30 PM, had all 4 sheets with wax
added on each frame. The Kelley wax (1 sheet) was a little bit ahead of the
Pierco and the other Kelley wax was about the same as the Pierco. The bees
had pollen in several cells on the first day. They also had honey on the
first day. I am not going to feed if possible. It is raining here now and I
may have to feed.
