ke Kaua kaua, there are a few queen rearers on the East side (great source for some of the best bee genetics around), & it is swarm season, so you could catch a colony, esp if you let everyone you know to be on the look-out for a swarm... (we have been very busy this swarm season & have been training a few "Beeks in the making" in the .... mmm.... fun??? of cut-outs & swarm capture... so far this season we have been doing 2-4 cut-outs a week, many with more than one active hive... record for us is 4, but another beekeeper had a house with 5.... YIKES...

wants to have to pay for a cut-out from their neighbors hobby.... one of the reasons beekeeping gets regulated around the country
