Queen cell on queen excluder

Dog walking delegated.

Headed to Allotment bees to check a hive I needed to inspect.

My allotment visited to water greenhouse and plant out pumpkins.

Over to mentee to I spect his hive, found queen and remarked her as her green mark disappearing.

Phone call from local bees , 2 swarms so headed over to deal with them. Too hot agitated bees but put both in nuc boxes. One just poured out the enterance and swarmed on nettles which collapsed to the ground. So another nuc on the ground and they zoomed in.

Met a beekeeper at garden centre with a huge selection of plants to plant at association apiary.

An early evening planting and watering, it looks great.

Swarm nucs moved to plinth.
