    Up date - cinnamon on the crown board and not a ant seen since - Result. And I was rung up on Thursday and told I had passed my basic bee masters so a second result!

    Great news, 2 colonies that failed Artificial swarm splits, then reunited, have lovely eggs and larvae in them - both after introducing a frame of eggs. Well chuffed. Also my first nuc has a hatched queen cell. A good day indeed.

    Default I hope they thanked that masked man

    On the BBC web site - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-28159243

    for a picture of the Dundee Utd smock wearing SBA legend in action. Any SBAi members in the Kilbarchan area want to own up to the swarm?
    I can honestly say - not mine!

    I'm sure many of us have used that hand-on-hip 'Hmnnnn ... is she in the box?' posture!

    Looks like a ladybird larva.

    Quickie - I'm going to try re-house a colony of bees that has taken up residence in someones outbuilding about 1.5 hours drive away from my house. What time of day is it best to go and do this ? I don't really want to make 2 journeys so was thinking just go and try it. Bring frames and wire in case I need to put wild comb into them. Put the whole lot in a travel nuc and get back.

    What do you experts think ? Advice ?
