A Swarm of July in Brittany

During a visit to her parent’s home in Brittany, Sandira Belia assists her beekeeper mother in collecting a swarm.

The last few months have been so wet, that one of the hives decided to cast a swarm later than usual, on this beautiful day in mid-July.

This video shows a simple, gentle technique of how to give home to a large swarm hanging on a low branch.

Thanks to Benjamin Bogosian for the music.
