I tried to capture any local roving swarm that might be looking for a new home by leaving a Nuc in the garden. I had nowhere to raise it more than 1m but I have had no luck so far. However, the last few days I have lifted the lid of the Nuc and a bumble bee would emerge. There are frames with drawn comb in but no honey in the Nuc. Any ideas of what this bee is doing?
