I spotted this swarm of bees while on my morning walk today, and was fascinated by the colour of the massed bee bodies.
There appeared to be two swarms, but the beekeeper that I contacted to come and rescue the bees told me that it was all one family and that it 'hadn't got it's act together'.
He wanted to know was it a 1, 2 or more bucket operation to re-home them, hence the photographs. I imagine that it would depend on the size of the buckets!
