This is the time of year when new queens can hatch out and decide to move off to start a new hive. Unfortunately they take with them a good percentage of the existing hive: 'nurses', drones, workers - the lot!
This afternoon - just as the rain started - one of Linda's hives swarmed, so she quickly assembled a new hive, captured as much of the swarm as she could and rehoused them: hopefully they'll settle down for a while!
