Earlier this year, I was lucky enough to observe a swarm of honey bees, splitting off from their nest tucked in a hollow Cherry Tree. I was out tilling my garden, and watched them swarm back and forth between their old home, and the Poplar where they decided to start a new colony. Here they can be seen resting on a post. There had to be several hundred of them in all; the swarm was so dense, at first I thought they were locusts!

These were from fall of 2015, during a woods walk on the state game lands a mile or so from the homestead. I managed to bring back a few pictures of my little CZ Bobwhite .410..
