The houses are getting quite full,
but the last week of rain has held them back.
The Tree Bumble Bees that are nesting
in my soffits, are very busy gathering
pollen & don't appear phased by the rain.
I have had a job on my hands
reviving them. 😢
They do not have a long life cycle
but they are so pretty close up.
here is one enjoying a sugar water snack.
It's little tongue was out, lapping for all it was worth.
They never seem to stop, then suddenly they can't fly.
When they get really bad, they just run everywhere.
Sadly some are dying now.
This image shows three different types of bee
heading into the houses.
The bottom furry one is a mason bee,
I am not 100% certain what the other two are.
They are all solitary bees regardless & they
all have eggs tucked away now until spring.
