April 9, 2020 Condo #1 has bees but condo #2 vacant

It is puzzling that Only condo#1 has  bees.
The condo#2 is on a wall which faces south. But it gets morning and afternoon
sun from both east and west.

Whereas condo#1 only gets some southern sun (after noon) and gets full sun
from the west  after noon.

The experts say east and south is the best position but my bee condos do
not seem  to validate that opinion.

The mason bees in my area seem to prefer full west exposure with half a day
southern sun.


Condo #1 gets lots of mason bee activity after 1 pm.

One thing I do not like is the appearance of  several very small ants.  I am
 wondering if these ants will cause a problem.
