WILLIAMSPORT, Ky, – Honeybee swarm season is in full swing, and that is keeping one Johnson County man known to many as “the Bee Man” very busy. Jason Conley has been a beekeeper for more than 30 years, and spends much of the spring and summer relocating honeybee swarms that have left the hive. In recent years, the global decline of the honeybee has made headlines, and Conley says he has seen it first hand. So, anytime he is notified of a swarm that needs attention, he jumps at the chance to relocate it to a safe place. Conley encourages anyone who sees a honeybee swarm in eastern Kentucky to contact him as soon as possible. He can be reached through his Facebook page, The Bee Man Jason Conley.
