I have looked for honey bees on several occasions in my fruit trees and have
yet to see any. I miss the noise of the usual cloud of bees at this time of
year. However, I do note that the yellow blush cherry seems to have set
fruit, so clearly something is pollinating a few things. On the other side
of the coin we seem to have wasps and hornets trying to make nests
everywhere. Some of my neighbours have already called in help to get rid of
them in their garages, sheds etc.

I have not seen a single bee near my two cherry and three apple trees
this year.

Have other observers noted this? If so, although Nova Scotia seems to
be behind the
rest of the country in economic terms, we seem to be right up front
when undesirable
events occur.
