Well no replies to that in two months. Maybe the board is inactive or maybe there are no bee keepers in south county.

Let's see can I get a reply to this one. I have bees in my garden. Today they're all over the cilantro and the raspberries. I'm ignoring the bumbles, but there is an orange-ish colored forager and a smaller black one.

The black ones are small and fast, hard to get a snap of. I'm guessing they're a type of wild or feral honey bee, but I don't know for sure.

They orange ones look like a honey bee to me, but I could use some help identifying them.&nbsp; Are these some type of non-honey bee? Link:

I'm guessing its late in the year to set up a swarm trap and try to capture some of these. What does the hive mind say about that?
