I'm a new beekeeper, finished building two hives, frames etc from scratch. Got on a list to capture swarms and it worked. I guess I'm lucky, the bees are very calm and the capped brood area is growing but the swarm was quite small. I didn't feed them much since they have lots of rosemary, apple, purple vetch, lavendar, sage, ... Can anyone tell me what these are? The last photos show the queen.
