Hi All

I though I share this with you. Swarmed and rehomed on 10th May 2017

Nice pic!
The swarm looks so tidy and sort of 'perfectly formed' doesn't it? How long had it been there like that?

Not too long on the branch, 2-3 hours maybe. I also have a video which I will be posting soon. Just need a little editing.
This was my first swarm collection and I must say that their behaviour was completely different to established colony. They were very calm and easy to handle.
