05-07-2020 Second Swarm in Kenmore, New York - Part 1 The Capture


Today, I was called about another swarm located on the outside of a garage in Kenmore, New York just a little north of Buffalo, New York. The temperature was 50 F. This swarm took off from the mother hive May 6th during 54 F weather. Little did they know that the temperatures were going to plummet that evening. Notice the dead bees on the ground from the chilly night. I captured the swarm with the Bee Vac (took a video and pics).
 
Later I transferred this swarm into a Nuc box within my East Aurora bee yard.

Stay tuned as I will document the progress of this swarm, throughout the year.
