I planted a lot of lavender and other herbs in my yard that I know will attract bees but all I am getting are the bumble bees too. <br /><br />I have given up on yard work this year. I figure I can do some of it in July when the bird activity calms down. ;o)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539583838978744802noreply@blogger.com
