Catching the Third Wild Bees

I saw bees going in and out of the bait hive in our walnut tree. There were not many bees but I did see them bringing in pollen, a sign that there are baby bees. I decided to transfer the hive. I climbed the tree and got the box down with no problems. I took the bees back to where I have my other two hives. I had made a third Warre style hive for these guys. This was a very small hive. I was not sure that these bees would survive. I installed them. They had some honey comb. I hope they make it.
