If it is a bee swarm you need to contact HBC, it won't be me that comes out, I'm no longer on the list. Honey Bees are protected by law and only a bee keeper can destroy a nest or a swarm

You're right, they were skinny looking honey bees, not wasps.

A neighbour does keep a hive, but apparently it wasn't them.

These must have been a visiting swarm.

Perhaps they were attracted here by my new dwarf buddleias.
