March 27 cool weather, light rain

No bee activity of any kind,
Inspection of the bee condos resulted in no filled tubes.

The cool weather and light rain seems to be keeping the bees rather dormant.

Sure hope the temperature rises.

March 25 Times are crazy

Mason bees must be hiding from the rain. Besides it is not very warm. 40 to 50 degrees F is just
not good for bees. They like 60.

Have not seen a mason bee in two days.

April 12 I am the Network station for the Federal Way Wa Emergency Radio group. I will power
up my station at 7:30 pm and go through the preamble and the various sections of the
call.

March 22

See 4 mason bees hovering above bee condo #1
They cling to wall approx 8  Feet above nest.
Temp 60F
Time 1:54 pm
Good activity  today. Seeing bees entering tubes.
Even using the routed trays. Very encouraging.
Bees tend to rest about 8 feet above bee condo.
Watched a bee emerging. That was a happy event.
After emerging she flew away.
All the rest of the bag is setup for easy escape.


.Hopefully they are out there pollinating and breeding
