Bee swarms
Swarm season is well and truly upon us!
I have already retrieved one swarm from a grateful friends property, and have heard anecdotes from others of swarms they have seen this spring. If you see a swarm flying, or congregated on a tree or other structure, please call me on 021731354.
If they are flying through the air, you can try to make them land by banging a pot with a hammer, or something like that. The clanging noise apparently simulates thunder, and they land because of it. I don't know whether it actually works, having never done it myself - it may just be an old wives' fable. But worth a try, nevertheless!

I dance in the sky with green and gold, a spectacle few are lucky to behold; I’m best seen in the south, a celestial sight—what am I, lighting up the New Zealand night?
