Shaken, not stirred

My first attempt at a shook swarm is going well, in a no-idea-if-it-is-working way.

Forget the textbook steps (assuming, that is, you know them to forget them). I now have two colonies, one queened and one queenless.

If I am successful, the credit is mine; if not, I blame the bees. (I should be in management, eh?)
