    I've certainly noticed wild bees getting disorientated when something near their nests changes, like opening the door on the tractor shed upsets the ones nesting under it for a while.

    There may be hope then @Sjoerd, the tractor shed bees live directly oposite the fruit cage :D I've got some Helebores potted up ( they were covered in bees in early spring) Could make a line of them from the bees nest to the end of the tunnel :sete_011:

    Wouldn't hurt to plant a few mariglods in the tunnel as well :setc_083:

    Had another good picking yesterday, Tetters turned it into a crumble :)

    Oooh, I never clicked in to see the entire set-up. Very nice indeed! I'm envious of your crumble.

    Interesting situation there, Zigs. I hope that you will keep us informed how it goes there.

    ….and then there is the crumble. Oh my.
