Hello everyone.
Thank you so much for all your encouraging words. I'm a bit more optimistic again -)) Watching the bees on the combs you have an idea, how close I was to them LOL. Fortunately wearing a protecting cover over my head. Nowadays the straw hyves are wooden boxes to make it easier to get the combs out. It looks so nice to see the little rates, closed to keep the content save -))
The bg is the little shed at the kids farm, where the bee keeper has his swarm. He keeps them calm by smoke and by coving the rates with towels. I was there when he looked for the queen, who was about to get born, if there was any. (you can see by the size of the rate-chamber) but there was none in it.
If so, he has to take her out to avoid the swarm to cloth together around her and swarm out.
Hugs Tigress
