We opened the blinds to find these honeybees swarming the hummingbird feeder this morning. They left after all the food was gone.

My 13 year old (with permission from the bee rescuer) scrambled up the ladder to take a picture of the honey-bee swarm up close, before the rescue began in earnest. The queen was found and the bees were taken to a new home. Nature is so amazing! #AltText #BeeRescue #HoneyBeeSwarm #BeesOfBlueSky

In some places, honeybee colonies may already be swarming or preparing to. Learn more about swarm management in our post below!

A honeybee swarm is a natural part of honeybee reproduction and is truly a fantastic sight! But why DO bees swarm?

Release the Queen! The Turquoise shed extraction is now perched on my studio railing with the queen free to expand her hive…
