  2. Does your Mason bee box get much action? I keep thinking I should build one, but I don't know how active Mason bees are around these parts.

    The flowers look amazing. Isn't this the best time of year?

  6. Kelly, The bee box works like a charm! Several different species of bees use the holes, which are of different sizes. The various sizes attract different species. And also parasites of those species, like cuckoo bees. I recommend building one.
