A new home for the bees

Well, it's that time of year again, the bees are swarming looking for a home.
We found a swarm today on our property, Sequit Falls Ranch in Malibu.
Gary suited up and was off to work.
First he sprayed the swarm with a little water to keep them together and then he cut the branch the swarm was on and shook them into a box. We then took them to the spot where we had our bee hive set up. In the shade of some trees, up off the ground and near a water supply. All things the bees appreciate.
Next we put a sheet down right next to the entrance of the bee hive and shook them onto the sheet. It was fascinating to see, the bees walk right into their new home.

Home sweet home!
