Kim Rochelle, front left, a resident in the 600 block of Park Street in Meeker, called on Jason Dunham, rear, and Joe Fennessy, right, who are local beekeepers, to remove a large hive of honey bees from a lilac bush in her yard. Dunham said there can be as many as 80,000 bees in one hive, but he estimated that there were 40,000 in this hive.
