Re: CULT: new topic: bees

This spring when the Snowdrops were blooming they were thick. I put a plate
with a mixture of water/sugar/ honey out and they cleaned it up in several
hours. About 2 oz of the mixture. I have not seen any all summer. I saw one
about a week ago. Last year was the first I had seen any for several years.
