I was working on packing at my parents house when i heard a weird noise so i walked out of the garage to see what seemed like a billion bees. So i grab what ever camera i could find and snapped a few pictures. I have no idea how to use this camera, so please, dont tell me how bad they are or whatever. Im not even sure i had the right lens on it. On to the pics...

 

 

Here they are landed on a branch and have started to form something.

The problem is the tree they are on is 200 years old and I don't think my parents want it all burned to fuck. Also, keep in mind it's hard to tell from the pics just how big the hive is. I bet it's the size of 3 basketballs, maybe 4. It's huge.

NO!!!

 

Those are honeybees. Let them live or call OSU to get a beekeeper out there. They are likely protecting their queen as they establish a new hive.

 

SERIOUSLY...PLEASE CALL SOMEONE TO SAVE DA BEES.

 

CCD's a bitch. :(

Thats a good lookin dog!

 

My mom had the same issue in her tree about 8 years ago. We called the bee people and they came out and took them all away.. There were ALOT more than they thought though. Because there is a hole in the tree there (Squirrels used to live in it) And probably 4 ft long inside the tree, 8" diameter.

 

Im not going to lie.. Young and Dumb I shot paint balls at the center... They got pissed.. :dumb:
