Your videos are so helpful to me right now! I had a neighbor reach out about having lots of bees in her yard over the past few years & wants them out of her & her kids & dogs living space in the summer. I made a bee box out of a cardboard box & using your techniques I was able to bait them & track their trajectory. I have to go back again tomorrow, but I’m confident that I’ll find them. I just hope they aren’t in a neighbour’s beehive. Thanks for all your research! Very helpful! 🤗
I have followed a lot of your ideas here but, have only found neighbors each with two or three hive and that’s all because there is not enough hour in my days. Thank you and I have now subscribed and am looking forward to more. When ever I am out mushroom hunting I’m also hoping to find wild bees here in Japan. I know that they are out there.
Excellent as always, I am so glad you are here Dr. Seeley! Following the Wild Bees is an excellent book and the method is how I discovered a beekeeping neighbor :)
Hey I’ve got the spirit to bee keep I think and also you’re channel has been one of meany useful resources in discovering and learning how to do that thank you...
Thank you dear Tom Seeley for sharing your knowledge and experience. It is always a pleasure listening to you and learning. And it is far more than just interesting and useful, it is a treasure. Kind regards from Vienna/Austria Kyros
I'm just discovering you tonight 11/15/2020, on TH-cam. I have a lot of catching up to do on who you are and your research on bees. I saw on a video (on another channel) your approach to allow bees to survive in a small hive without treating for mites and that sparked my interest because that's the same approach I've been using in my first 6 months or so with my first purchase of bees. Looking forward to learning from you. 😊
@27:00, YO is almost halving the other bees timings. Is it possible that the bees are from two separate bee trees? Or maybe bees of different age operate at different speeds?
Thanks for your video, I already own your bee hunting book but watching the video was still fun. My bee hunting tries were not successfully so far. Probably too good other forage in my area, but will keep trying.
Dear Professor Selley, I have been trying for a week to locate a bee colony that is inside the village. I have established the food source in my garden. It takes 5 minutes to reach the house. The difficulty to see the flight lines is absolute, because there are buildings that do not let you see the horizon. I have captured some bees, hungry, and I have modified the box with a straw to be able to fill the honeycomb with honey water without having to open the box and thus to be able to advance through the streets and open the box without them all leaving in panic. When I open the box some of them leave but others stay georeferencing the station again. Others go back to my garden. I have gone out of town one km between the streets but the lines they trace are incoherent. I think it is because there are two mixed colonies, because there are two very different types of bees, but both are captured in my garden and so I get different vectors. Is this possible? th-cam.com/video/se9JlGIHht8/w-d-xo.html

Now to find a location where I won't find a fellow beekeepers yard!

a very interesting lecture, most fascinating. Thank you for taking the time to record your lecture. When i get time I will attempt to make
a beebox. 😀
I am glad you enjoyed the lecture. Good luck with your bee box building!
@@tomseeley4027 mr thank you for yours. Videos 👉🏻💯
I also live in maine and am gonna mess around searching for bee trees this yr. Be a fun hobby
I will include the development of this interesting device in my work plan. Specifically for searching apiaries of other beekeepers. Thanks you!
Why do you want to know who else has bees ?
