I seriously couldn't think of just one title for this video. Maybe.... A bee in the hand is worth two on the bush? If I hadn't caught it on camera you wouldn't have believed me again for the third time? Nah, that's way too long. So help me out and lets see how creative you would have been on this one.

Last year I had an amazing experience catching a swarm of honey bees and the video went crazy viral. Sharing the joy I have for such a small creature with the world is an honor to say the least. I've long said that the schools have failed us for the last few generations when it comes to education our children about bees. The only thing we hear about them anymore is when the mainstream media talks about Africanized bees attacking someone's dog because it gets ratings. I hope that my videos shows a different light on one of our most essential insects we have in this world.

So, the story goes like this. We had some friends over visiting the apiary when out of nowhere, a box of bees in the yard decided to swarm ( split in half and make a new colony). This is natures way of recreating a bee colony. It was such a cool experience for them. They had an opportunity to stand in the midst of thousands of bees and have no fear. Although bees can and will sting even during swarming, they generally are less likely to do so. After things settled down and they clustered on a low branch in the yard, I grabbed the camera and a bee hive to put them in. As they stood off nearby, I went to work catching the bees and the rest is queen catching history.
As always, I am humbled at the response of the YouTube community for watching my videos and the great comments and questions you leave. As well as keeping them family friendly.
I try my best to respond to as many as I can even if it's just hitting that ❤️ to let you know I saw the comment. Thank you for taking the time to connect with me.
