This is a happy news story. A home in a town near Toronto became the choice of local bees. They estimate there were 50,000 bees in the hive.
It is sad that last year they exterminated them. At least this time they found someone who rescues bees to come and take care of them. The bees will be set up in hives and will go on to make many more pounds of honey and pollinate countless plants.
It is good news for everyone.

They do need to figure out how the bees got in and seal the hole.
What is remarkable and encouraging is how much interest there is in saving the bees. Ontario has an active Bee Keeping Association.

They list three different bee rescue groups. It is nice to know that bees are being taken seriously.
