I thought that thing was an "Interheater", so all he needs to do is fire up the jap VW and they'll all be fried in no time... *pulls on armour and hides out in bomb shelter at the sound of the approaching REX storm...*

This topic should be "Another reason not to have a bonnet scoop - Bees"

With a front mount, they wouldn't have had enough shelter to make a nest, hehe

If the hive becomes full and the queen has nowhere to lay her brood she will leave it, and the other bees will follow her. For them to swarm like that would take maybe 15 minutes? Would be a great place for a hive from a bee's point of view!

Where I was working at an apiary they had once formed a new hive under the eaves of one of the buildings!
