   Thanks Terri, carpenter bees are very mellow and totally non-aggressive

   These bees are so non-aggressive I was even able to “pet” one on a flower today and it didn’t move away at all. There are literally dozens of them on the flowers in front of my house all day, some even choosing to spend the night there. It seems like they’re in some sort of a pollen daze and can’t find their way home.
