My yard is carpeted with dandelions and small purple flowers, as it is every year, but this year there are NO bees. I have a couple of wasps attempting to build a nest in my chicken coop, which I always leave in peace, and once they recognize me they leave me alone. But the lack of bees is extremely concerning.

Same thing with our coop, but ours look like honeybees (neighbor has honeybees). They've been in twice the past couple weeks and leave at night. First year where the coop has had bees in it. Strange...

I wonder if your neighbors bees are looking for a new home.
Good point.... I will have to check with him.
Same here in SWMO. I’ve got a big, fragrant bush that is in full bloom. It normally hums with bees. Just a couple of lonely butterflies this year. 😕😮
Oh, that's really disheartening, QH. I hope they arrive soon.
