Bee Man Vs Ramped Up Bees

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 มี.ค. 2021
  • No-one knows the story of this ramp that was placed at the rear of a greenhouse. Perhaps it belonged to a skateboarder somewhere in the past or a relative of Evel Knievel's wanted to jump buses with it.
    All I know is it had a bee colony someone was petrified of. The bees & I? We got along just fine.
    I invert a portion of the ramp on a makeshift table also next to the greenhouse, beehive & all & transfer them into a ten frame Langstroth hive.
    Mark & Olivia stop by with curiosity & bee questions.
    The following day I release the queen & do a follow up inspection 15 days after the hive was removed.

    Not gonna lie, you started on those bee facts and I rolled my eyes. 'Oh, most of the bees are female, y'don't say'. Then you laid some bombs down. 1.5 times around the entire world... For less honey than I get in a honey stick?
    I thought I savored this wonderful stuff before. You totally changed how I view it.

    I worked in commercial horticulture off and on for a few years and when the crops started blooming in the greenhouses we would have bees around as the weather got better. At one company we had just one house and so we had crops into the summer and fall as well as late winter and spring. We didn't mind the bees and they didn't mind me going about my work. In the fall we usually had a large collection of fall bloomers outside and as the plants matured and bloomed there were bees everywhere. One day a coworker stopped me and pointed behind me and, as I was moving pots from one area to another, the bees would just follow along behind in little cloud. They would wait until I got the pots situated and then move in to go to work. We considered the bees part of the staff and there was never a problem.

      Throughout the removal, I kept thinking it might be good that it was late winter. There seemed to be a decent amount of comb and if it had be heavy laden with honey, it might have been a bit harder to lift that ramp section up onto the table. 🍯

    I am afraid of bees (insects) but want to learn more about them. I am impressed with how you handle them with such care, this probably contributes to them not stinging as much. That being said, from the title of your video I was expecting to see excited bees and how you handled the situation. It wasn't until the end that I realized your play on words, lol.
    Thanks for helping me appreciate bees and learn that they aren't always aggresive.

She is laying only to the capacity of her bees, but I have a feeling she will become a very busy lady and hard to keep up with once they get their spring numbers up. She will keep them on their toes! Great video!!

    Great content, thanks for saving these girls. No veil, barely smoking them, and going into an unknown hive - mad props. You're so calm and I'm sure they sense that. At the end very calmly sitting on the ground and keeps inspecting the hive for another 3 frames after you know there's a bee up your sleeve eventually going all the way to your armpit and then letting it out at 26:37. Just awesome JP.
