I really appreciate you taking the time to watch. There are so many options now with what people can watch.
By the way, it was pointed out on a different forum that I could possibly be in error when using the term 'checkerboarding' in this instance.
Does anyone have any input on this matter?

| As I understand it Checkerboarding is removing full frames, or sliding them apart, to insert an empty frame instead/in between. |

Conserving wild bees
Research suggests that bumble bee boxes have a very low success rate in actually attracting bees into them. We find that if you create an environment where first of all you can attract mice inside, such as a pile of stones, a drystone wall, paving slabs with intentionally made cavities underneath, this will increase the success rate.
Most bumble bee species need a dry space about the size a football, with a narrow entrance tunnel approximately 2cm in diameter and 20 cm long. Most species nest underground along the base of a linear feature such as a hedge or wall. Sites need to be sheltered and out of direct sunlight.
There is a spectacular display of wild bee hotels here
