May 5, 2020 Cinco De Mayo

I wonder if mason bees care?

What I can say is that the bees continue to avoid routed-wood-trays. I mean
not a single filled tube in the routed-wood-trays.   Instead of using the routed-wood-trays
the bees are opting for paper tubes. 

The bees continue to mostly choose the bamboo tubes.  Occasionally, they choose paper
but that is it.

I have plenty of flowers so the bees are keeping busy.  I have about a dozen blueberry
bushes. To date I have only seen one mason bee on a blueberry bush.

I really don't know what flowers are best for them. One neighbor has a dogwood tree and the flowers have been blooming for a couple of weeks.
