The birds and the bees
Then early in the afternoon, after we came home from a bike ride to the store, a swarm of honeybees flew past Kevin and landed in a small tree behind our house. As you can see in the photographs above, they are right next to a walking path around our neighborhood. First we stood awestruck watching them protect their queen and then it suddenly dawned on us what danger they were in. You see, this base we live on is not kind to wildlife in any way. Nature is seen a nuisance that needs to be dealt with, not helped or saved. If anyone else on base happened upon this swarm, a report would be made and the bees would be exterminated straight away. We couldn’t let that happen. We contacted all the beekeepers would could find (all of them are at least an hour’s drive from our home) but being Sunday not too many picked up their phones. All the while we were watching them vigilantly, making sure they were safe. We did find one beekeeper willing to make the drive to us tomorrow morning to rescue the bees if no one else responds tonight. Now I just pray they remain safe on that tree until the morning.
Our day came to an end rescuing one of the aforementioned magpie babies that was unable to get back up in his tree. One of our German shepherds found him in the backyard. Thankfully our dog didn’t harm him but there are numerous neighborhood cats that visit our yard at night so Kevin gently guided him back up to the tree (taking care not to touch him). Phew, what a day!
Now we need to get back to watching over the bees and trying to call more beekeepers again. Please keep them in your thoughts. I hope to have good news to report back with tomorrow.
