A few weeks ago retrieved my first swarm from a tree. Yesterday another first for me I caught a swarm in my swarm trap.
Put up a 14x12 nuc in a April in my garden about 25m away from my hives and this arrived yesterday.
Will find out if it’s from one of my colonies at the weekend when I do my next inspections (didn’t see any queen cells on last inspection at the weekend unless I missed them).
Housed them in a new nuc then dropped them off at my parents 4 miles away after sunset to quarantine.
