Making Certain He Sees ALL The Details
South Jersey Beekeepers Association (SJBA) member Tim Stewart gets up close and personal with the sundered "bee tree". For a complete description and photographs of the relocation of live honey bees from a bee tree by the Central Jersey Beekeepers Association in 2006, see "Hiving a Bee Tree" on their branch website. Here you can see the "rubber band" method of securing free-form comb to frames as opposed to the "string" method used by SJBA member Dana Wilberg during his cutout demonstration.
