North Dundee Summer Picnic
22 of our members and Newbees came to see the bees.
Iain Lilly here demonstrating.
Jim Batchelor had second group, found the queen and marked and clipped one wing. Queen cells were found by Iain and were taken away and more room was given to colony so we didn't have to spit a hive. Iain did show the members in theory how to take the queen and flying bees to a new home, leaving the open queen cell, brood and food in the origional box.
Many thanks to those who provided the picnic and to Iain who invited us to Emmock to see his bees.
