Title: Speaker Box Bees & Gettin' Ready For The Flow
Post by: JP on May 11, 2008, 11:02:16 PM
Thought I'd post some more pics from the car speaker that has bees. Their numbers are growing, caught them doing orientating flights couple of days ago. Not ready to transfer them just yet, having too much fun observing them, they are way cool to watch as they enter and exit.

And took some pics of some finished boxes ready for honey and bees.

I think that it would only require a few watts to make those bees very very mad.  :)

Its amazing what you can find in the oops section at Home Depot. $5.00 vs $38.00 for an external latex with primer and mildecide all in one, can't beat that. And I like the neutral colors, mid ground, just about anything.
