Just popped down to check on a largish swarm I hived three days ago. They had already drawn down the syrup I left with them and working on comb. However, there was a fair sized bee cluster on the front of the stand and stand leg, also round the side of the BB. I cant think they were there because it was too hot inside - it's been a dull few days here in South Suffolk. They cant be swarming again, or can they!
 
Hi GuyNir. Full size National BB. Should be OK?
