New Bee
Hi, in a tree I have a swarm that swarmed on Good Friday. The bees have stayed in a ball in the same location, about 20 feet up a tree, for the past 4 days now. On the second day they were drenched by a thunder storm. Now that the weather has cooled there seems to be little flying activity but it does increase if the sun comes out. Are they likely to stay there and die off or could they start to build comb to become an exposed nest, or are they more likely to move off sometime soon? How long could they stay there?
Many thanks
