Capturing a swarm

I was at work Monday morning when one of our groundskeepers, Scott,  knocked on my door.  "A swarm has just landed in a tree!  You were the first person I thought of!"  

I followed him out of the building and towards a nearby tree.  

Free-bees!

So amazing!  We hadn't gotten to cleaning up and removing the hive from the rain, and then last Wednesday M was working out in the yard.  He heard a sound that he described later as sounding like several leaf blowers starting at once.  He got inside the house, and remembered my camera is in the desk.  I'm so excited he got photos!!!
