No sign of houdini flies today. Now that was good news.
Basically Condo 1 has been full for several days now. Condo 2 is very close to full up.
Condos 3 and 4 are very active. I even witnessed a mason bee visiting a lavender flower. I dont know where the mason bees usually go for pollen searches. I do notice that when they return to the condos they normally return in groups of 4 or 5. There does seem to be some lever of cooperation. I also see some fights which seem to be caused by competition for a particular tube.
According to literature, all the mason bees will die around the first of June. I expect the process is winding down.
