Were they confined or unable to fly due to bad weather for a few days.
Well of course there was snow here on the ground from Monday to Thursday, yesterday it was warmer and they were out again.Quote:

This is the stuff people complain about when it gets over the washing hanging on the line near your bees.
Let Ivor Cutler explain about voiding the bowels.

Thanks Jon, that sounds very reassuring and I just love that Ivor Cutler. There was a school teacher in these parts in the 60's and 70's and she spoke just like that. She also had a good sense of humour.
Ivor Cutler used to be a teacher as well before he became a professional eccentric and paid up member of the noise abatement society.
