The Bees are Swarming at LREC!

On Wednesday, April 24, a honey bee swarm was discovered on a Cottonwood tree. The next day, another swarm was discovered about 10 feet from the ground in a young Ohio Buckeye. LREC volunteer and bee keeper, Lil Collins, “coaxed” this swarm into a bee hive box. Today, a second swarm was collected from the same location.
