Honey Bee Swarm Removal

    Our phone conversation started with, "Have you ever seen a swarm of honey bees?" I hesitated before answering; it was my brother Craig on the line.

   We are having a unofficial, friendly "bee counting contest", Craig was winning hands down. Even with my suburban backyard full of native plants I can't compete with the diversity that Craig and his wife Moon Eagle Arndt have added to their rural Pennsylvania (USA) property.

  I begrudgingly admitted that the only swarm of bees that I have ever seen was on National Geographic.
