I have an upper entrance in one of our hives and for the last week I have seen a small gang trying to pull about a 3" piece of what looks like a tiny fiber of rigid yellow straw into the opening. Sometimes they get a portion in but the next time I go out they have it on the outside again. Other bees just go in and out as usual. One bee gets below it and does that back and forward movement. A few times I didn't see it at all but then it reappears. These creatures surly are fascinating.
The questions and answers on this site are invaluable. Thanks so much!
Janet Weinberg!
