My neighbor and her son started keeping bees on a piece of hunting land he owns. They will bring the honeycombs back to press the honey out of her garage (sorry if I have the lingo wrong). The other day, they left a bit of honeycomb out on the driveway.
It was amazing to watch. That thing had to have attracted every bee within several square miles. Hundreds upon hundreds of bees were swarming that thing for the next few hours. I'd have never guessed we had that many bees around the neighborhood. It's fascinating to think how all the bees knew the honeycomb was sitting out there.
