The entrance to
this bee colony is a small gap between the shingles.
The bee colony was not removed from the wall after the
bees died out. Robbing bees, Yellow Jackets, and Wax
Moths damaged the comb holding the honey allowing it
to flow freely. This honey is as messy and sticky as
the honey you spill from the jar in your kitchen
