Pi squared (Π²) is 9.8696…, which, if you round to 9.87 and ignore the decimals, is 987, the 17th number of the Fibonacci series

I must have cut at least a dozen bamboo sticks. Once cut , I need to
cut to the 4 to 5 inch length. Then if the stick is at a node, the node has
to be trimmed so they can be stacked. I probably have one third of the tubes
made out of parchment paper. Last year, the bees avoided the parchment
paper.
It is not difficult to remove the bees from the bamboo. Just crack the tube at the front
and then break it open. Dump the cocoons onto a large clean cloth. The
the bees get a quick wash with a VERY dilute solution of bleach in water.
I have to get all the yellow pollen off and make sure the cocoons look healthy.
I keep them in a box on the north side of my shed. That way they are shaded and
I cover the bag with quarter inch hardware cloth.

No bees yet.
4 day until pi day
All Mason Bees celebrate the day by emerging.
At least I think that is why they emerge on the day.
Probably some connection with Albert Einstein who
shares his birthday with March 14.
Can't help but wonder if Julius Ceasar thought there
was anything special about the day before the Ides
of March.
