Today we transferred a wild hive that Kwao had up on their farm. He had it in a Langstroth hive and we transferred it to our larger, beautiful top bar hive. It took a long time to tie the comb on to the bars but it was an exciting experience. As we were cleaning up, though, I noticed many bees on my head and pointed them out to Kwao. It was then that he noticed the queen was sitting on my head! But before we could do anything she flew away. Hopefully she either flies back into the hive or they raise a new queen. I am optimistic :)
All the bees in our top bar hive!
