I was kindly given a swarm this morning. I put a ramp up to a poly nut using a white sheet and they all walked in. I heard some sort of trumpeting noise and they all walked out. I followed them to two houses down where they settled at the top of the skinniest tree in the garden. After risking life and limb, they are all going into a box as I speak. I will dump them into a proper brood box with a QX under later this evening. My other hive is only a nut so I can't spare the eggs.
