Wild Colony of Bees

Writer's picture: Laurence EdwardsLaurence Edwards

We found a wild colony in bees living in a fallen oak tree!


We love working with wild colonies of bees. The temperament isn't always the best but they are often incredibly resilient.


This colony has managed to survive a badly damaged fallen tree and are fully exposed to the elements. We will return in the spring and get them into a beehive once the weather allows.
