Bees in Loretta’s Bonnet

When Loretta dropped her armload of firewood on the hearth, a mysterious tube fell from between the logs. Loretta took it back out to the woodpile and watched as holes appeared. It was a leafcutter bee's nest. But where were the bees? Soon she found circular holes appearing in leaves on her rose bushes. Some of the rose petals had holes, too. But where were the bees? Leafcutter bees are more efficient than honey bees for pollinating gardens. The book includes instructions for building a nest that may lure wild bees to your yard. Join Loretta as she learns about bees that don't sting.
