Re: Bees
Guess they were on vacation yesterday. I was in the brush pile 30' left of 17 and didn't see them.

Re: Bees
OK I'll see what I can do about eliminating these wasp nests. Besides the wasps (yellow jackets) there are paper wasps, I found a nest of them on 1 and killed it with spray.
There are no bees, they are wasps. Common mistake, honey bees don't live up here. Rednecks call them bees, or sometimes "ground bees," but rednecks always use the wrong word for everything. Vespus vulgara, common wasp. Yellow jacket.
