Last year, in the nest box shown, we had a family of wrens and we thought that we had something again this year as the nest material in the box had been moved. Not wrens though, bumblebees.
They are so sweet. Can I keep bumblebees instead of honey bees?
They never fly straight to the nest but land on the upright and walk up to the rear then walk round to the front before going into the nest.
