And she's just going to go in now and pick it up by her wings. So really gently, very safe to pick a queen up with her wings like that. And then she turns her around, and then she holds her in between her hands very gently like that. You can see no damage to the queen. And then you can just release her, and you'll see that queen just wander off down into the frame. She's very, very happy indeed.
