 the above link should take you to a video of what must be a swarm moving in to the hive . I had thought they had moved in already , as mentioned in the earlier post , but they hadn't , I checked at the weekend and it was empty !.
 Anyway , the video shows lots of activity at around 11.45 today , it went on for some time , then it settled down to just normal numbers of bees flying about .
The video is poor I know , but you can see the bees flying around against the backdrop of the corrugated shed , plus you can hear them . The dogs thought they were going out when I went to  the door , so started to fidget about , but they had to wait till the bees had settled  .
 Fingers crossed I have bees again !!!

cheers

I can't quite see from the video where they are going but you sure can hear them!    Lovely to get "free" bees like that.  I have always heard that people tempt them in but never seen it happen before.  I took a 3 and a half pound swarm yesterday and they are now settling in nicely in my new hive - all very exciting!

well done with the swarm ...hope all goes well with them .
The bees are going into the middle one, of the front row of hives . Sorry about the poor quality picture , it is  just my really old mustek dv3000 is showing it's age now ....


 They seem to have settled down now . Just what I would call normal movement around the hive . Plus it isn't as noisy ...lol ...they really were loud . The camera was picking up the noise from over 30 feet away. 

cheers
