bee gone

The bee people came yesterday to remove the bees. It was such an interesting process. We got to see bees being "born". The bee guy help the comb up and we could see the new bees breaking out of the comb. He left us with some of the comb so we could have the fresh honey. I'm not a such honey fan, but it tasted good. He attached several of the combs to frames and put them in a box over the meter box. It will stay for a few days to give the bees a chance to reorient.
