i put out some sugar water for the bees at my house on saturday morning. 
there were a few honeybees at the time. lol. i went away for an hour and came 
back to what appeared to be the entire hive on the plate with sugar water! it 
was poor thinking to leave the plate under the porch the first time because 
bees were swarming the entire porch and front door, but thankfully they were 
all in a jovial mood and didn't even bother stinging the people as we went in 
and out for the rest of the day. there are no flowers blooming here now 
because the recent freezes and frosts killed all the flowers that were 
blooming. so i imagine that the pollinators are extremely thankful for any 
food put out for them right now. hummingbirds too.
