The bee box is up!
Dad said when he was putting it up, he had a bee fly over and check it out and he said it was not a honey bee. I was looking in the holes and the bottom left one appeared to have some stuff in it. Looks like wood shavings, but I know all the holes were clean when I bought it. Dad's a woodturner so we have wood shavings all over the place. He likes to mulch my gardens with them. I think we're also harboring a family of skinks in the garage.
I'll keep an eye on the bee box to see what develops!
