A first for me!  by bigmxx

A first for me!

Day 134 - After my daughter walked her girls to school she came back and said there seems to be a lot of bees in a tree, so as I’m nosey off I went to investigate! What I found was a swarm of bees resting, with a lot more flying around, in a bush which was overhanging the path right by the school gate, so I went back and got my daughter to contact the school and a local bee swarm collector, luckily they could come and collect so all was well with the bees and children!
Amazing to find this swarm - and a brownie point for your good deed of the day !!

YIKES - I'm afraid of any flying insects (the cicadas are back in TN, so I will only be going out when necessary) Glad you were able to get the bees to safety.

Oh wow, that is fascinating looking. I'm glad all is okay.

Glad to see these bees surviving. And it was good of you to keep them and the children safe.

Nice of you - I don't like any buzzing insects myself.

@beryl I’m glad I went back and looked for it as I’ve never seen one before
@marlboromaam Luckily I don’t mind them, but then I’ve not been stung - yet!
@louannwarren It was lucky there was a swarm collector available and that they had space to put them
@koalagardens Lucky I’m nosey and went back to find them and take a picture
@illinilass I’m glad they had the capacity to rehome them as it’s a busy time for them
@ludwigsdiana I’m glad we managed to find someone to collect them
@pattyblue I’m so glad I went and found them as it’s a first for me to a swarm
@linnypinny The only flying thing I’m frightened of is moths but having looked up what cicadas are I’m adding them to my list, they look horrendous
@mittens It was definitely a sight not to miss
@k9photo I’m glad they are safe and rehomed as I love watching them in the garden
@monicac Luckily I don’t mind buzzing things just moths
Thank you everyone for the lovely comments
