My Son got Me a Bee house for Fathers day.
I fixed it in a sunny position on the garden shed.
I did not expect to get any Bees use it untill spring 2013.
Then I noticed a piece of green leaf covering one of the holes.
To My suprise, two leafcutter Bees are nesting in it.
I have made some wooden trays to use next spring so I can extract the Bee cocoons at the end of the year, Same as the Hutchings Design. ( see hutchings bee service on youtube - orchard mason bees/ cocoon cleaning using sand )
