Did y'all have a good week for nectar flow? My two Frost package hives packed in some honey this week but the other hives didn't seem to do as well as they did but I could tell they had a good week too. I've to two medium supers of honey on each of the package bees I started in March. Dang it!  Had a couple of Catalpa trees blooming right by the hives this week. I have no idea if there is nectar from Catalpa or not. Blooms sure looked promising though.

There are hives swarming all over the area here from running out of room and back filling the brood nest with honey. None of mine have swarmed, that I know of, but I know of more swarms over the past week than any week this year.

My neighbor had some swarm behind his house this past week. Contacted a bee "feller" and he came to capture the swarm. The ?hive? ?box? or whatever you all use is sitting in place till Sunday. This guy "walked" them to the box...pretty cool.
Be kind to one another and tell the ones you love that you love them often. We never know what tomorrow will bring.

Yes it is pretty cool to watch them walk into the hive.
