Manuel captures a honeybee swarm
This past week, Manuel captured a honeybee colony that had swarmed to the roof near the lab’s hives.
Manuel adds a swarm of honeybees to an empty beehive.
With this new addition, the lab now has seven honeybee hives.
Manuel holds a frame full of honeybees, with a temperature logger embedded in the frame.

With plenty of bees, the lab’s experiments on mechanisms of honeybee clock entrainment will certainly continue this summer!
