Bee Hive...


We had three paper bee hives in our pine trees last summer... wondering if we should tear them down before spring...will the bees come back to the same hive...the hives are a little worse for wear as the winter was a bit hard on them...but they are still pretty...

  2. I always thought it was wasps that make paper nests and bees that used wax? Great photo either way. :O)

  3. Rachel, I believe you are correct...I seem to remember these were wasp nests...They are nastier than bees also, aren't they??

  4. Wasps are some nasty things indeed. I was stung by one, on my neck, my entire face swelled up like a balloon. I look hillarious!
