Me and my gentle bees a 'few years ago. They know they are in good hands
and realize I believe that I am helping them locate to a new home!

A small swarm of my bees, captured in the Spring, which ' landed' in the middle of a Bamboo plantation in my garden. After cutting them free, I placed them into a new hive.
NB: Notice the solitary bee on my hand (photo below), fanning it's wings
and dispersing a pheromone, signalling to other bees that the Queen bee is present!

As can be seen they were very docile and I received no stings.
The colony survived and all being well, will produce
surplus Honey for some years to come!
