#beecolony

Originally built this “hut” for the owls we saw hanging out around our home... was eventually taken over by a colony of bees.  This was built large enough for owls, so you can imagine, it’s quite a large hive there now.  I was trimming the tree next to it and was doing so early in the morning, so as not to stir them up.  Our mornings have had temps in the 40s and that keeps the bees from being very active until it warms up.  

So far, 2020 has just felt like it is made of bees. So I guess I wasn’t too shocked when I got to work yesterday to discover that part of the building was now literally made of bees. A colony or swarm or whatever had stopped on our staff patio. I don’t know the technical term except that’s a lotta goddamn bees. Anyway, I put up a sign warning people not to go out there, and I guess we’ll see what happens today. #bees #beeswarm #beecolony #lottagoddamnbees https://www.instagram.com/p/CDbiSIbh25m/?igshid=1i7te4dli7i0y

A recent study has found that the number of pesticides in a hive, not necessarily the amounts of each pesticide, can predict the mortality of a honey bee colony.
