swarm-list Mailing List: Re: Swarm settling in upper Rockridge near Lake Temescal, 8’ up

[Pamela Weimer (pamela.weimer]

Very tiny with no queen.  I gathered it but they left my box by the time I came 
back.  Hopefully they went back to their old colony which the locals say was 
likely from a roof tile colony of long standing next door.
