It’s probably two clumps from the same swarm, not two distinct swarms.

Both swarms in boxes.  Will stop back tonight for pickup.  One is acting queenless.

Still available.

Forgot to mention, the swarms came from a colony in a palm tree.  They've been on the tree and camelia bush since yesterday.  Collect them tonight because they might not be there tomorrow.

Please leave your name and phone number when claiming. Make sure you can go right away. Since it's nearly dark, you probably collect the swarms, and just wait for the stragglers a bit.

Reported by Becky K of ACBA, since she's not able to collect them. Gingko swarm is about 5ft up.  Camelia swarm is about 3-4 ft up. If you have a headlamp with that red light, use it.
