20,000 Bees Follow Grandma’s Car For 2 Days Trying To Save Their Queen This sounds EXACTLY like how some of y’all follow Beyoncé… Via NYDailyNews For two days, bees chased a car to rescue their queen — who may have just been stuck in the trunk. Carol Howarth, 65, might have accidentally picked up the queen during a visit to a nature reserve Sunday, according to The Telegraph. Howarth didn’t know she’d acquired an unwanted passenger — but the busy bees knew, and they followed her. She parked and went into a store in West Wales — and when she emerged, her car was covered in unwanted visitors. Tom Moses, a Pembrokeshire Coast National Park ranger, saw it all and detailed it in a bizarre Facebook post accompanied by shocking images of the swarm. Mr. Moses called the beekeepers to clear buzzin’ bugs off the car. They did and Ms. Howarth drove home. No problem. Until… “The swarm of around 20,000 had followed her and were sat around on the boot of the car. “I brought over a cardboard box and carefully brushed them into there as quickly as possible as I was aware it was a big swarm in the middle of the high street. Can’t even BEGIN to imagine being stalked by this many bees. “I have been beekeeping for 30 years and I have never seen a swarm do that. It is natural for them to follow the queen but it is a strange thing to see and quite surprising to have a car followed for two days. It was quite amusing.” The bees basically had a Formation Tour concert on the back of this poor lady’s car. Image via Facebook
