Oh! Thank you for linking over to my story with tips for beginner beekeepers. I hope it's useful to people considering keeping honey bees.

This is a wonderful article. We have a lot of these holes in the ground in our gardens (mostly because we have a lot of weird sandy-ish soil), but I never knew they could be solitary bee nests. This makes me happier than what I previously imagined they might be, which was some sort of home to an unpleasant creepy-crawly pest.

As a certified bee lover, bee encourager and host to many presumsbly happy solitary bees in my backyard bird (and bee) sanctusry-I loved this article!. Between Walter T. with his ants and you with the bees, it's wonderful to have such expert info!
