I have a swarm available for collection 12-15feet up in a rather flimsy
magnolia tree. I am at OX119EQ south Oxfordshire. If anyone would like to come
& collect them this evening I am here & able to assist - I think it may need
two people to do this safely.
I am in the village of Aston Upthorpe & my mobile is 07926256754.
Have already contacted Kieth who can come & get them tomorrow morning - and I
think they are not likely to disappear off anywhere before then but I thought I
would put the offer out there in case anyone else can come tonight - though
time is getting on. Paul has a bucket on a stick contraption which I think
would be ideal to reach them if you have anything similar.

After today's excitement, here's the latest list. Mags / Magalie is under
"East Oxfordshire".
The BBKA swarm collector map is still misbehaving, other beekeepers are
beginning to complain; hopefully they will fix it soon and we will get more
swarms through that channel.
