Location: Melbourne, Hundred Acre Hollows

This is a barn for a Mason Bee
One of the best pollinators around.
They don't sting and are sweet,
They nest in tubes or in reeds,
Their effect on flowers and fruits is profound.

Bonus: Check out this video I made to learn more about Mason Bees.  Please "like" the video and subscribe to my YouTube channel, and if you would like to see more videos, leave a comment and let me know what critter I should feature next!
