The warm afternoon yesterday prompted one of our hives to swarm, it’s quite an impressive sight but even more impressive sound. Here’s a small clip but do put the sound up.

The swarm collected on a nearby tree.

The swarm was collected and is now housed in its own hive.

Not far away on Dunces corner pond there was a different kind of swarm.

I’m guessing these are toad poles as I did not see any sign of frog spawn!

Looks a good crop😀
