Might have missed it if you've covered this already. excuse me if so.
Just wondered if this stuff is already widely known or if people are using it:
paper published by Martin Bencsik and others at Nottingham Trent Uni Feb 5 2011 (which you can find by putting 'accelerometer, bees, swarming' into google -it comes out top of the list) shows that they could predict swarming several days in advance with a 'simple transducer secured to the outside of the hive'. I can see the attraction in that.
