Our Bees Swarmed!

We heard this really loud buzzing and knew that something was up with the bees. It was so loud. Our hive has swarmed. The queen has left the hive and got all her followers to go with her. 
We contemplated catching the swarm and putting them in our spare hive....
Not.
The boys have decided to wave goodbye to them. 
Adios
See ya
They have been in Instacare way too many times with huge allergic reactions requiring emergency medicine and us meeting them there to drive them home. Yeah, they are done.
So we said goodbye to honey too.
I'm sad, but relieved that the boys aren't going to be subjecting themselves to multiple bee stings no matter how much they protect themselves. It's like they have a magnet to bees now, or little signs that say "sting me". Hopefully, some ambitious person caught the swarm and stuck them in a hive.
 Free bees!
