I can honestly say I never thought I would be up on my roof, in the rain, during a thunder storm. Okay… the thunderstorm was still twenty miles away, but when I tell the story, the thunderstorm was right above me. Why was I on the roof? Bees. The answer to any question about me right now is bees. Swarm season has hit hard in my backyard, and the threat of rain doesn’t even slow them down. It could be raining all day, and if that sun peeks out for even a second, a swarm will land in my backyard. Yesterday they landed on the peak of my roof. I am scared of heights and bees, so this was a brutal combination for me. However, my love for free stuff still prevails. To buy a colony of bees costs about $300, and they are never has strong as a caught swarm. You can see why I am a bit grabby grabby with the bees. I was dreading catching the swarm on the roof, but it turned out to be a pretty easy catch. The first gently scoop I made, must have included the queen, because as soon as I put that scoop of bees in the box, they rest followed. I left them up there so any bees that were still out could make their way back to the group. At 6pm, with the rain coming down hard, I went back on the roof to get them. NOT my favorite thing in the world to do, but again… Free is Free!!!
