According to the bee keeper the wasp nest came second, they then started to kill a few bees, raides the honey and reduced the bee nest to ruins.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

Doubt they're wild bees but young queens leave the hive and fly away to start their own colony.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

I would have thought bee keepers were preventing swarming as much as they can atm, what with so many dying off and catching as many swarms as possible.
But you're probably right.Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0 -
He told me that swarms were usually in May/June but spare queens fly off without a swarm as such.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0
