The Swarm
The other day one of the contractors asked it I had seen the bees outside on the container. So I thought some photos were in order.
Turned out they were in the forklift slot on the storage container I used.
Seem to be a reasonable size swarm.
I used the zoom to get close
A couple of hours later they had flown off.
Good for you that you used the zoom....DANGER :)
ReplyDeleteGreetings
You could get reasonably close but the zoom was the safest bet.
DeleteLove the way that you got closer and closer. How close were you with the zoom? Still probably closer than I would be!
ReplyDeleteAbout 5 or 6 foot away (1.8 meters)but they were ok.
DeleteStill a bit too close for my comfort :)
DeleteYikes! I'd be running the other way. I'm allergic.
ReplyDeleteSo would I had they been wasps.
