Glasgow city centre bar forced to close by swarm of bees
A Glasgow city centre bar and restaurant was forced to close after a huge swarm of bees gathered and nested outside.
The insects arrived in a mass swarm at the 63rd+1st on Sunday morning and gradually settled on a railing outside.
Staff were forced to flee via the fire exit as the insects marked their territory at the front.
The Bothwell Street bar closed for just over a day before it reopened on Monday evening.
The bees gradually relocated to the external side of a nearby wheelie bin.
Staff were able to wheel the bin away from the entrance and barricade it from the public.
