Bee SWARM! - Save the bees!

I convert buses, do custom fabrication, install solar... and live a life on a mountain pass.. things get weird.
Theres no telling where any one day will go.
Join me as I navigate the world of having the "maker's bug", and a slight addiction to abstract hobbies...

[@WolfDogBuses]

**striving to be on par with that Chuck Cassady voice

[@angelabenetti7043]

Wow how cool; they were so loud! Just made my Brussels sprouts with their honey; fantastic!

[@williamstefanelli4334]

Hi Brianna, I am a subscriber to your channel, so I immediately came over when Chuck mentioned on his video that you were posting a new one. What a surprise, I never expected a bee video but I was fascinated to watch you capture the swarm. Hope they stay with you, and yes, I would be interested in the updates that you mentioned at the end of the video. Where can I find them? And of course, best of luck with the hive!

[@billintexas7061]

That was awesome! You are so calm with them..unreal!

[@stevedrumheller3520]

Such a great video!! Would love to see more like this!! 👍

[@TricksterDaemon-jw9hi]

Spot the queen sounds like finding Waldo, except the picture is constantly moving.

[@stargirlofantares9053]

That was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen. I’ve been afraid of swarms since I got a super personal flyover once with my baby niece in a stroller & I got stung even though I got low down to the ground & covered her. I don’t know why they were moving, but I was the only thing in a vast expanse of a field & they swarmed above me. I’ll never forget that sound. Amazing how loud it can be. You are so brave! I stand in awe!!! I’m from just down here in Oregon, on a farm where we now have to truck the bees in at night from California because there aren’t enough bees anymore to pollinate the berries. Blueberry & blackberry farm. Love from the farm! ♥️ Jess

[@user-xd3lo6ts4p]

I am struck with the communication. The Bees swarm, you understand and answer their call.Very Impressive!

[@EffieG-ez9tf]

Brianna, Thanks for sharing your bee swarm with us. Phew! You’re so brave! I’d have a heart attack for sure, being so close to it. I wonder if you have any ground-dwelling bees in the northwest? We had one a few years back at our old house. They were disturbed when my husband accidentally mowed the lawn right over the top of the opening to their hive. They swarmed out and started stinging him all over. When he came in the house, we stripped him down and pulled off the rest of the bees, he collapsed three times, heart stopped three times. I had to revive him while simultaneously on the phone to paramedics. They came PDQ and gave him a shot of anti-anaphylactic shock meds, and all was well soon after. I had never heard of bees living in the ground before, and the local bee keeper in our town didn’t know much about them, so that’s why I wondered if you had them out your way.

That's so cool bees do so much for the planet many don't realize!!

[@WolfDogBuses]

so much! we are lucky to have them... so so cool

[@SmartBusN]

I do gourmet mushrooms check out the Fantastic Fungi movie they are very beneficial to the world as well. Before the Internet we had zoo books bees always fascinated me.

[@WolfDogBuses]

I will! Always more to learn about mushrooms.. living in the pnw you know im fascinated by them.. oyster mushrooms growing in my window as we speak

[@TricksterDaemon-jw9hi]

Oh man I remember those blackberry bushes when I lived near Bellingham...

[@paulsherman6450]

You are awesome Brianna.

[@WolfDogBuses]

you are awesome. 🙂

I started following your channel after watching Chucks skoolie videos and spotting beehives in the background! You're doing a great job, both on the bus side as on the bee side.. And especially with the bees, we never stop learning! I live in Belgium but it seems like your hives ressemble mines, are there 11 frames in a box? Which species of bees do you work with? Unfortunately, none of my 4 boxes (or hives, what is the right name?) survived winter 💔 all were strong and healthy, yet at the end of december, the boxes were suddenly empty.. No explanation, but this past winter 1 in 10 beekeepers over here lost all of their hives.. Not much to do than start over again, but it's really sad when you love your bees! Keep up the good work! 🐝🐝

[@WolfDogBuses]

Thanks for checking my channel out! Thank you! I use 10 frame boxes.. they come in a size that holds 8 too, 11 would be heavy! How cold does it get there? I think its harder the colder it is, here it seems like if i treat for mites (i have landed on the oxalic acid sponge method) and leave them enough food, they make it. Or if they are my mean bees that i dont want to over winter.. they survive regardless lol These are carnolians, my mean ones are “ankle biters”

[@Timzieee]

We use 11 frame boxes, so it's more or less the same. It doesn't get cold here at all, in total maybe a few weeks of mild frost, and all of them were treated multiple times against Varroa and had plenty of food.. Maybe it's because of some kind of pesticide, but we can't be sure since all bees are gone.. We hold the same type of bees, I didn't knew that type was used in the US! We call them 'Carnica', but carnolians sounds better🤩

[@johnnytooby9980]

Omg I came from chucks page. You are beautiful! And about the bees surprisingly not in anyway how I found your channel. But I'm guessing I'm about to binge watch!

[@Judy98814]

Coming from someone scared of bees this was a great video, watched it twice. Very cool

[@theMekanik]

So Kute 🥰

[@WolfDogBuses]

Thank you!! I really appreciate your support ❤️❤️❤️

[@purdypart]

I was just wondering about how ppl deal with swarms yesterday, what lucky timing! So cool to see you tending them

[@dcsblessedbees]

There is nothing like the energy of a swarm, it's simply amazing,😁Glad you got to experience it. Good spot for ya, at least it was close to the ground. Swarms generally are pretty nice bees, very rarely are they stingy. How long have you kept bees? Looks like you have a Wonderful time, Blessed Days...

[@Devonhoneyandcandles]

i love catching swarms, its so much fun. You did a great job👍

[@terrybrannigan9963]

I love bees

[@WolfDogBuses]

Bees love you

[@theMekanik]

So kute 🥰

[@dan9441]

Today, Brianna converted a bus, moved a hive of bees, cured cancer and then took a break for lunch!

[@WolfDogBuses]

Lol! I love your faith in me, however its more like… tried to convert a bus, got distracted by bees, ate lunch, fell asleep by accident, woke up, panicked about my to-do list 😂

[@austindayvideography]

Wolf Dog Honey coming soon???

[@WolfDogBuses]

Lol i do sell honey locally, and i totally slap wdb stickers on them 😂

[@johnnytooby9980]

Im 5 mins in are you sure you dont want to run àway to land in Texas (unseen by me but I'm heir to) and live off the land? I should note I live in a 57 pd4104 but own 2002 international which currently houses the rest of my owned possessions. Traveling with me to Texas where 17 acres a spring fed lake named after me awaits my creation or destruction depending whom you might ask!
