When life hands bees lemons... they make lemonade! With all the rain and cool weather, colonies' population spikes. If bees aren't out working, they're not dying, but their replacements are still hatching.

Who needs some bees?!?! I've got some Nucs available!

In a David Attenborough voice: inside this little cluster of female honeybees is a marvelous queen honeybee. The worker bees as, they're known, protect thier queen with all their might against predators to ensure the success of the colony.

Part of a swarm capture.

Beekeepers....remember you don't suck at finding queens...some queens just suck at being found 😉

50 splits
-went through the entire hive twice to find the queen at least 30 times.
-queen was on the first frame I pulled out, twice(that I noticed)
-queen was on the first frame I pulled out but I didn't find her before going through the entire colony, twice.
-queen was in the split box but I didn't notice until going through the entire colony 15 times

Keep at it! You'll find her
