sheryl said:Yeah, it is really strange - we have a ton of carpenter bees, wasps, sweat bees and lotsa other pollinators, but I've barely seen one or two honey bees since I moved here in 2006. It's very rural, so I'm kind of scratching my head about it. It is a farming community and I'm sure many areas are sprayed with stuff that isn't bee friendly, but there's also a lot of woods, so.... ?

Of course, I know there's a big problem with our honey bees in the U.S., but it's just *so* few....


Sheryl, I've been in my house outside ATL since fall 2007, and last summer was the first time I saw honeybees in my yard here...

I'm going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I'll do that second week.
