You see the odd bumble bee here in area of Bruce County.........and the odd honey bee as well and some wasps but......
My tulip tree just bloomed this past week and a half and still blooming
there are thousand flowers on the 80 foot tree and that many pollinators or more.........I have never seen this many bees in my life..............a lot are bumble and a lot of them are honey bees...........
at night time the moths come
just wander how bees know how to do this and second of all.......where do they all come from....

no local hives that I know of around here.......this tree is in the middle of a small town......
