Bee foster care

Kirk is the pied piper of bees right now. He's captured two swarms in the last two days, and with Solano Garden already stocked with hives full of happy bees, they're parked in our yard for a few days.

Soon they'll be starter hives for new Backwards Beekeepers.
























































Apparently some captured swarms will just fly off, but these bees seem pretty happy with their temporary home and all the stuff that's in bloom around them.

If our garden gets any more pollinated, it may burst into flames.
