First time ever seeing an open air colony of feral honeybees. Luckily for me, I was trusted by the landowner to remove them over 3 other beekeepers. Now the hard part. Winter is upon us. These bees has to be fed heavily for the coming months. They will reside a few yards away from the original location and adopted by the landowner and managed throughout Winter by me.

Took me some time, but I was able to successfully remove these bees from Wallkill Correctional Facility. You may accuse me of jailbreaking these ladies. They were given an eviction notice to vacate the premise before winter. They now have a nice piece of real estate in my backyard where they can roam free of prisoners and guards.
