We have started harvesting the habitats from the various sites. Today we harvest a habitat from the second Payson site at Flowing Springs that shows evidence of native leaf cutter bee activity.
Why native? Because we released blue orchard bees, not leaf cutter bees. Both are solitary bees, but they are different.
Why leaf cutter? Because the habitat tube was filled with leaf cuttings instead of mud.
When we opened the Site3b4 habitat we did find evidence of leaf cutter activity.
We saved the contents for further study.
