Look what I found in our Yellow Jacket trap! She’s very big so I think she’s a queen, which means there will be that many fewer Yellow Jackets harassing our bees this summer!

You never said if the bees accepted the new queen…?

Not yet sure. Going to open hive next week for a look. If she’s settling in, supposed to leave alone for a couple weeks. If she’s dead, being left alone won’t matter. They’re busy gathering pollen though.
