ya,but we have had it there for about 2 years and this is the first time any bees have been on it.
and yes,there is many many flowers in our garden on all sides of the house and something is always blooming all year long.
I don't mind the bees so much,but I refuse to put up with ants :D

Just means a colony has moved in recently. Those guys will suck it dry every time you put it out.
