Title: First Bee
Post by: Bean_Queen on February 24, 2009, 17:12:09
I saw my first bee of the year (honeybee) on Friday (20 Feb) - it was trying to share my OJ. Was still quite dozy

A plot neighbour has several hives so I've been seeing honey bees for the last week or so.
I also saw a bumblebee elsewhere earlier this week.

Whereas I went to cleanout my bird boxes and found the recycled one one (made from old car seat foam chips), was harbouring about a dozen overwintering bees.
