This is GOOD news

This has always been strange to me. I'm assuming you live in North America. The honey bee is not native here. They are therefore an invasive species, but one that even environmentalists are fine with.

I don't know enough about the whole thing to have an opinion different than the norm, so I support you providing a habitat for honey bees. It just confuses me.

All honey bees are nectarivorous pollinators native to mainland Afro-Eurasia,[13][14] but human migrations and colonizations to the New World since the Age of Discovery have been responsible for the introduction of multiple subspecies of the western honey bee into South America (early 16th century), North America (early 17th century) and Australia (early 19th century), resulting in the current cosmopolitan distribution of honey bees in all continents except Antarctica.[13]
