Mexican Honey Wasp Nest
These “Bees” Were Not Bees, At All!
Recently, I saw dozens of bees surrounding the water in my bird bath. I assumed they were thirsty, and the shallow rim of the container made it easy for them to drink. Looking closely, I noticed that not all bees were the same size, and some were only half as long as others. I sent a photo of these little bees to iNaturalist. The identification came back: these were Mexican Honey Wasps! Not bees at all!
