I saw a dead wild bee on the sidewalk in Bridgewater yesterday.  Likely hit=
 by a car.

Dear All,
    I have to date seen only one wild Bee in the yard and none elsewhere. I=
 suspect deep frost killed many ground dwellers but saw some bee workings o=
n a south facing sandy bank today; less than usual but still numerous. How =
did they fare elsewhere ?
    Also perhaps someone knows how they move soil to the surface. These con=
es of soil are so delicately poised that the size is often about halved if =
touched when dry. Presumably they are made when soil is wet but I wonder ho=
w they manage to move soil to the surface.
