Important to keep water sources near the hives so that they don't gravitate towards pools. I have my water buckets ready. Just need to get a pool noodle to cut up or packing peanuts so the ladies have something to stand on whilst they drink.

I guess I'll just go **** myself, regarding the robins.
You can put window stickers/clings on your windows to keep them from banging into them. Probably nesting nearby and they see their reflection as a threat to the nest.
Had this problem last year with my van mirrors. The birds were going nuts bashing themselves into them trying to fight their refelections. Luckily I could just fold them in, as they're tow mirrors. I figure evolution will take care of them on a long enough timeline.

I've had a pair of knock off Birkenstocks for 2 years and they're falling apart. Decided to pull the trigger on a pair of authentic ones. $110 for sandles. The knock offs were the most comfortable footwear I've ever had so I have big **** expectations for these.

I love my birks and they've lasted a helluva lot longer than 2 years and I live in them in Spring and Summer.
I bought some Chacos this year on the recommendation of my podiatrist. he says they'll be better (not that the birks were bad but still) for my Plantar Fasciitis.

I do not have a beehive, but I do have a swimming pool. Consequently, I have bees.

i got stung on my foot last wednesday. in my house, im march. wearing slippers. no idea how a bee got in my slipper. but it did, and it stung me
When I was a lifeguard I stepped on a bee that responded by stinging me in between my big toe and pointer toe. I've had broken bones that were less annoying.

My grandfather used to keep bees, and my brother kept bees for a few years until a member of the local bear population obliterated his hives. One of our neighbors currently has some hives located at our house in Slippery Rock. If you have bears in the area, you'd better be prepared to invest in an electric fence to surround the hives, or they won't last too long.

My ex still has the pair she had when we met in 2000. The knock offs were so good I'm actually excited about these.

If you don’t remember, this is related to this past January’s playoffs. The Packers trailed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31-23 in the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship Game. With 2:05 remaining, the Packers had a 4th and goal at the Bucs 8-yard line and head coach Matt LaFleur elected to kick a field goal. It cut the lead to 31-26, but the Packers could not get a stop and never touched the ball again.
