Job 12:7-10
7 “But ask the animals, and they will teach you,
or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you;
8 or speak to the earth, and it will teach you,
or let the fish in the sea inform you.
9 Which of all these does not know
that the hand of the Lord has done this?
10 In his hand is the life of every creature
and the breath of all mankind.

A few years ago I found a swarm of bees in an outside water heater enclosure at my place of business. People said to exterminate them, but I remembered seeing a guy come to safely and efficiently remove a queen and her swarm from a tree at our local high school about 30 years before, while school was in session at that. It was quite a spectacle. So I called a local beekeeper and he came out right away and got the queen and her consort. The beekeeper got himself a free hive. Good for him. Such a good feeling to know you are doing your part in helping these precious little creature do their thing. Where would we be without them?
Hungry!
Yeah, better to move them somewhere they can be happy and useful, instead of spraying them all to death.
Beautiful woman doing beautiful things. Just what the earth needs.
This video reminded me of something I learned from watching my father, that even the smallest creatures deserve respect and gentleness. He never made a spectacular show of it, he would just put his finger down and let the little thing, from an ant to some tiny flying insect, crawl off to safer ground. He never seemed to have that "swat first" attitude so common in humans. He was by nature a gentle man, who always told me, "Can't punish them. They're just being who they are."
I love that story about your father. My dad was the same. He would move an ant "nursery" to make them move away to another place in his garden. He never killed anything except wasps who, he said, killed for pleasure and not food, just like humans.
i'll always try to do that with anything I find, the only exception are flies and mosquitoes. And even flies I'll leave alone if they leave me alone. :D
However mosquitoes get no mery. I am literally their prey...so they deserve whats coming to them.
I learned that years ago too that even the smallest creatures deserve your respect! I get these flies that come up through my drains and I escort them outise using A bottle all the time, they're quite clumsy and fly into water allot so I help them out but sometimes they die because they got too wet, I still don't know which type of fly they are though.
This memory is very touching - thank you for sharing
I love how beekeepers talk about the bees. It is like... how human women should talk about other women -- supportive, reassuring, respectful.
Wow, that is fascinating - such amazing creatures! I can see you are truly a "bee whisperer" and your love for, and fearless gentleness with the bees is delightful to witness (bare hands)!
Thanks for saving the bees. This beekeeping stuff never gets old. I love my bees. And you all do a great job with your bees. I enjoy watching your videos.
Good morning from Morocco
Never kept a bee in my life and no desire to but love your channel and nothing helps me wind down better after a days work .Priceless.
I just got hired at a 5 star resort as a cook but found out an activity they teach is beekeeping. I am hoping that I can take these classes and eventually learn to do it myself well enough to have my own hives one day. With the plight of bees and wasps right now, they need all the help they can get and also I have always been fascinated by bees.
They are so cute! I have had a nest in the roof of my house for an estimated period of over 30 years.... and love having them around. I top up their bee watering bowls with water whilst they are knocking about and they as good as gold, the only time(s) I have been stung us when I have trodden on them by accident when walking barefoot near the pool, but now I have set up the bee bowls for their water source.... they don't tend to drink around the pool anymore, wonderful insects and should treasured and loved by everyone!
You need to get them out of your house. The weight of the hive will weaken the structure of the house. And if they been in there 30yrs, I say you got intensive rot.
My aunt had the same thing happen to the pool house. She noticed them in 1990 and she did not vall a bee service. Sadly the continued building weight of the nest and rot caused the entire ceiling to collapse into the pool house. Not only did this cause the complete loss of the structure many of the bees were lost as well.
Wonderful things bees. I once watched our local bee man collect a swarm -- he banged the side of a cardboard box and they marched straight in. Fun watching bees hanging around the original swarm site, telling incoming stragglers where the hive was. 30 feet away, invisible behind a car, and they flew straight to it. Respect!
Great catch! Swarm catches always amaze me. One of the more fun aspects of beekeeping. Seems like a miracle every time!
Glad to see the honey bees are making a comeback 😍 they sure make a tasty treat.
I was called out to a swarm yesterday, i put my box down and went to get my suit. Came back and they were also marching straight n! It is indeed a beautiful site! Bees are awesome!
Ohhhh that is lovely
Why do they do that?
@@jojoberry6320 Because the box contains used bee frames. Nothing smells more like home than a place where bees have gone before :)
Every queen deserves a royal fanfare 🐝. It really is something to see, isn’t it?
Be wary about using a 5 frame nuc box for more than just capturing a swarm. Just a week ago I learned the hard way that the swarm might insist on larger quarters ASAP. I used a nuc box to hive up the swarm, and even though I gave them a frame of brood and four frames of drawn comb, two days later they abandoned their new 'home'.
Lesson: I should have quickly given the swarm a 10 frame box!
True, I alway upgrade in a day to ten.
@@mileawayhoney
Several days ago I hived up a small swarm. To be specially sure to keep them in the ten frame box, I gave them a frame with brood on it. Several days later they absconded, despite the brood.
50 years of beekeeping, and I still obviously know nothing about it.
May of been a virus. We learn every day. I opened a hive that was getting ready to swarm but the hive had 5 frames that were empty. Look like the queen ran out of room on five frames and said were outta here. Bees are crazy. I re waxed the five frames and moved the queen to a split.
Wonderful to see people working to protect the honeybees. Your daughter did a wonderful job saving so many precious bees.
The "butts in the air" portion of the video between 5:20 - 5:52 is really visually wonderful to me. Nice video, great job!!!
You should check out how they create wax and collect it!! Trust me it will Blow your mind!!
It's a welcome sight when collecting swarms for sure
Bee twerking = good thing?
I love you 😘💕❤️ 🐝🐝🐝
What an unusual swarm. Usually when they go to the ground it is a sign that something is wrong. There was a swarm that landed in the parking lot of the Nicholasville Library and the lady who tried to rescue them found that the queen was dead. She was either exhausted or she froze to death or both. Thanks for your video, it was really great. You are the best!
Yeah definitely was that cold snap! I really was shocked to see them... but they a BOOMING now 💛
So amazing. Such compassion.
Beekeepers are just wonderful.
Love the raw honey....❤
Such a sweet video!! ❤️
Good job to your daughter for spotting them, she saved them along with mommies help! 😇
You’re so sweet, Brave and kind to the bees! I love you for that! I love how you talk to them too! 🐝❤️🐝
Fellas!! I finally found our Queen!! 😍😍 I love bees and have been thinking about bee keeping for while now. I'm pretty sure I'm going to start doing it very soon. Theres alot I have to learn before starting though. Glad I found this channel! And hun, you are absolutely gorgeous inside and out! I just subbed and will be watching all your videos. Fascinating!!😍😍❤❤❤
This video is just wonderful and awesome to watch. Thank you and your daughter for saving the bees.
That was one heck of a video really enjoyed it and learned a bunch so thank you!
Awesome rescue Kaylee thanks for sharing. Not everyone knows how to do this. Your like the bee whisper.👍👍🐝🐝🐝🍯🍯🍯
Amazing nature, and your care is tremendous.
I really like seeing them do the March.
Bees are truly remarkable little creatures.
I still don't know how you spot the queen in the middle of the swarm
(from another video) They're bigger, longer and have smaller wings. They're also most likely the center of attention.
Love this! Such a beautiful thing to watch! I love learning from you, you’re truly amazing ❤️
Good morning from Morocco
capturing a swarm is always a wonderful time.....The smell once they decide they will accept the box.....and the hum of the beating wings
Great video! Thank you for sharing the verse "Job 12:7-10". Praise the Lord!
Immediately subbed
Such beautiful docile bees. I'm glad you have them a home.
Excellent, I just stumbled across your videos. Love the barn build those guys are killer wish you were my neighbors, ha, ha! It looks like you're a great bee keeper. I used to have bees for years until the colony collapse and mites were being shipped in 3lb packages. I was able to keep some of my colonies healthy for years, but the winter kill is tough in Wisconsin and my last colony was attacked by a black bear. That was my best colony I got 65lbs of honey off of that one my best year. I still have a lot of equipment and plan to start up again when I'm retired and have more time to spend with them. Loved my girls:) My favorite thing was to watch them bring in pollen. It's been years since I've had bees and I still have buckets full of some of the best wild forage honey I've ever tasted. Liquid gold! Shout out to your bow for the barn build:) Men can accomplish anything for their wives. I built a house for mine and keep trying to get to the end of the honey do list that keeps getting longer! God bless you both for your hard work and perseverance.
I don't know how bee keepers do it. Camera is look im ng right at her and I couldn't see her at all.
I’m 11 and the only problem with catching swarms is I live in 🇬🇧 UK
😔😔😔😔
I love that you are wanting to catch them and maybe one day you can have an opportunity 💛
Why is that a problem? I live in UK and I have caught all of my bees, in total I have caught more than 30 swarms.
You need to join your local beekeeping association, they have very good programs/help for young lings.
@@rihardskrauze9732 in Kent it is sooooo cold even in April this year GG
I can’t even see mamy bees
Take a fishing pole with lead weight on it cast line over branch tie rope on pull rope over branch and tie a frame on the rope lift it up to bees. After a few times until queen gets on frame they will come down to box
Thank you for posting this! Very informative, clear and concise. Thank God for bees. ! Hi from Belarus bee's forests!
You're awesome! Great job keeping these beautiful bees safe and sound! You have a good heart
There is a certain tranquility and peace while watching your content. Thank you for making my day a little better 👍
I LOVE the way you talk to your bees! No joke.
Nothing better than a beautiful girl that farms bees keep up the great work
Not a single dislike, humans deeply love bees. Encouraging.
😘
they really are awesome :)
Well I think you just jinx that comment.... but nobody can please everyone at the same time.... and I bet the ones whosoever disliked this video had done it on purpose , just to be mean .
Also, her voice and her obvious care for her bees are so comforting and soothing
Honey bees are like the hemoglobin in our blood. It takes oxygen, binds with it, holds on to it, then when it is supposed to it releases the O2 into our cells in our body! The less hemoglobin we have in our blood, the less energy-efficient, movement, brain fog and body start to wether away very fast! The healthier and higher the number of bees, the better the flowers which end up in our food chain, is the best of whatever the bees touch in that area! I hope my grammar didn't destroy this comment. I am a Paramedic and would love to have some of my own beehive to care for, but not enough room or time to properly care for them! Your daughter could have just saved a billion bees just in her own life spane and shortly beyond due to depending on how much the bees multiply and spread out! Great job daughter and great job to you for training and spending time teaching your daughter your knowledge and caring spirit! It started from you! Give yourself a pat kn the back, hug and kiss to your daughter and brag / instill intrest like you are doing here. You, through your daughter, through your work, your video on here, then all those out there on TH-cam land who continued your work, learned or got interested in bee keeping and Rescue may have saved a Trillion or so bees in a 100 or so years! ❤ Super happy you was recommended to me by the algorithm!
Goodness! Your daughter should be proud for finding them and saving so many little lives. Beautiful to watch them all come in and fanning. Great work :)
I was sooo proud of her!
Only white ladies cared about their white race as much as this woman does bees.... We'd have a secure future..
@@skotchyromana8396 they are actually the LAST ones we need
@@dawn409 Ms Dawn, by all means share your opinion... Ever read James Mason's book "Siege"? One thing I know about myself with certainty;
I will not do nothing. Damn the cost, I born a lamb I will die a
Your videos are inspiring me to start my own beehive one day! Learning a lot! Thank you!!!
We caught 5 swarms in 2 days this week.It`s crazy because only had 3 hives,caught them all in our bee yard.
People dont understand what a valuable resource that is!! Plus, there soooooooooooo cute!!!
So cool I had no idea they were so vulnerable.
Our little friends, thank you and your daughter for looking after so many of these
Sooo proud❤✝️, time to help do Gods work. Love each other. Love our WILD BEES... GREAT GENITICS WITH 80% EFFECTIVE RATE.
Where did you buy that box? Don't bee chew boxes up to make a hole?
Thanks for the quality info on beekeeping 🐝🐝🐝

Why you are using Card Board, they get wet when raining?
Doesn't the cardboard get soggy and moldy?
That is so cool. I love how you can do that with naked hands. I am afraid.
Would it be possible that put up a temporary shelter for the night to keep the rain off. Sorry if this is a dumb question. I’m learning a lot from you.
great work... i like and impress
People who love the bees can find where the beehives and swarms are.So special congrats to your daughter.
Must've fallen from the branch. Catching swarms never gets old. I love the marching in....so amazing
Great job, just so satisfying to watch and learn. Thank you!
Good morning from Morocco
You spotted the queen but I don't understand which one you are looking at... can you add arrows to show us which is the queen??
the bigger fatter one
Beautiful!! Thank you. First time I've seen THIS!! The creation of GOD is awesome !!
Do the cardboard boxes not get wet in the rain?
Ok I guess I’m dumb. You said “sisters” I thought that the queen was the only female bee
All worker bees are also girls there's actually very few male bees called drones in a hive
Hearing the change in tone when they started to fan was awesome. Thank you for this video.
I've fallen in love with your channel and it's only been a few videos.
Amazing! Awesome that your daughter found them in time. I have no idea how you can spot the queen with that much movement going on and taking desperate measures with such a short time frame. Will have to start calling you the Bee Whisperer. Amazing filming skills also. God bless you and your family.
Thank you so much for sharing this video! It was well done, capturing the bees so close up! I love the way you speak to them😍 Side question: may I ask the brand of you bee veil? It’s so cute!
Look up Bella Beek 💛💛💛
this video was wondaful
Thank you for providing scripture, I needed that satiation
Yay!!! 🐝💕🐝💕🐝💕 I'm so happy you found them in time!!! It makes me emotional 🙏💖
Check you out, 😲two in a row in the yard and walk right on in 🤪 They love you Kaylee...they do not want to leave your care 🤗 🐝🐝🐝🐝Nice...
Honeystead Lady, this is one of the most precious and beautiful videos 💙🤍💜💚❤️ rescue videos🍇🥖🌻🌿 I have ever seen! And I love the Job scripture verses with it❣️❣️❣️ God-bless you... those are happy bees I would love to try bekeeping 1 day as God gives me opportunity❣️🌻😇
Why put them in a cardboard box instead of wood ? Will it hold up in the weather
These are wax coated nuc boxes and I use them temporarily:)
How did you get into beekeeping?? I have been always fascinated with bees. Finally have some land to start our journey with bees!! 🐝 Besides watching a ton of informative videos here on TH-cam, what other resources do you recommend? Any advice is greatly appreciated!! 🥰😇
Why they did not attack you?
QUESTION....I am getting sick and have no more propolis tincture...can I put my propolis and vodka in my dehydrator to speed up the process? If so, what temp should I set my dehydrator and for how long???
Damm luckily I love ❤️ bees 🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝☮️☮️🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝☮️🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝Damm you found her queen 👸 🐝
Where can I get my he cardboard swarm boxes? Thanks
yeah where ..
39 wasps felt left out :-)
fascinating! So fortunate that your daughter found them
Hi, can I just get the honey comb in the new box I purchased and they will get in? I’m confused and it’s the first time I have them in my back yard.
I get stung when I walk past a flower. You stand right in front of then and NOTHING...lol!
I don't understand... how come!
Called ahead...your reservation in HEAVEN has been confirmed.
Parabéns pela sua colmeia, o mel dessa região deve se delicioso...🐝🐝🐝🐝
From São Paulo... Brasil.
God blessed you...
Thankyou- this was fascinating to watch & learn from ❣❣💞💗🤗🥰 Buzz Buzz Buzz🐝 🐝 🐝
I agree 👍👍👍 i😅😅😅
Please mark or encircle the queen bee while identifying, so we can identify and remember how a queen 🐝 looks like.
Fab video
I've no interest in bees apart from.walkimg through a swarm of them yesterday lol I just cannot recognise the queen bit video was fascinating and delighted you helped them all
happy bees and a happy bee keeping momma. ;-) beautiful up-close footage!!
you are beautiful
I was screaming the whole time but your calm voice kept me in the fight
thanks for the video. So nice to see. I will begin soon with honey bees. I hope to install colonies in my garden. I collect in general hornet colonies for scientific studies. It's a little different :-)
Great video, you are so calm around the bees, you'd be great at educating school kids on bees :-) - I'll the best from Ireland! :-)
WHEN BEES MOVE TO A NEW HOME DO THEY HAVE A HOUSE SWARMING PARTY? UK.
Hahaha I love it!
Once met a man who told me he was an "A" keeper.
Told him that I prefer "B's" myself.
Or...was it vice versa...can't remember.
Great video, I just couldn’t see myself putting my hands near that swarm of bees yet alone picking up the queen. When they swarm like that are they always so docile?
Generally they are. You have to be cautious at first, to make sure they are a swam. If they are a established colony they can become very defensive fast.
Save the honey bees
Oh my gosh ❤, so cool, I'm a avid gardener. My knowledge of Bees is very little. Thank you for the lesson, 😊, you're a kind hearted ❤ person 🎉
Do not be surprised, because bees are inspired by God
maybe the other way around
