How many different types of wildlife have to reside in an area before it's declared a 'wildlife refuge'? And are bees technically considered wildlife?
Lately when we've been outside on our patio, we've noticed that there are a few more bees than you might typically expect at an outdoor function. A couple weekends ago when we had a little get-together, one of our guests pointed out that he was noticing that the bees seemed to be disappearing inside the wall, close to the light that doesn't turn on (some of you are familiar with this light).
Then, two mornings ago, Jeff was back from his run and was stretching in the sunroom monitoring his breathing, listening to the birds, when he noticed a certain buzzing that broke his reverie. A buzzing coming directly from his left. A buzzing coming alarmingly from inside the wall. Hmmm.
Today we had a bee expert out to the house. Did you know that bee experts have special stethoscope-microphone devices designed especially for listening to bees through walls? And, if you're an especially good bee expert, you can tell by the decibel meter approximately how many bees you might be dealing with. Let's just say that the bee expert likened listening to our wall to attending this really killer Led Zeppelin concert back in the 70s.
It seems that word is getting out among the animal kingdom. The Price house is open for wildlife. Rodents in the attic, bees in the wall -- what's next? Snakes in the sewers? God, let's hope not.

Let us not forget scary skeleton things in your makeup, too!
Indeed! Must've pushed that one way back in the dark recesses of my memory...
