Still winter here!   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1412 of 2395 |
We have had such a late winter here in the south of England.  It is to be fair a bit warmer than it has been but there has been no sun for absolutely ages and very few bees and wasps.  We have seen one wasp (on March 9th which is two weeks earlier than normal) and two bees - by this stage in the year there are usually lots of both!
 
Is this the calm before the storm I wonder?
 
Take care all!

Hi Debbie,
I think I'm following what you are saying. It is like
a scar that itches from time to time or an old injury
coming back. People who react to changes in the
weather have similar occasional aches and pains.
When I first read Sue's e-mail I thought in terms of a
constant itch not an occasional one. I wonder if hers
is only a problem in certain circumstances, like dry
weather or humidity or cold etc.
I saw several wasps these past few warm days here in
Massachusetts. Couldn't get a clear shot to kill any,
so no new Vespid eliminations to report. Hopefully
that will change soon. I always think the more I get
rid of the less there will be later. My Epi-pen is up
to date but I wonder about the ones at work that I
sort of rely on being available. I'll have to check
again.
Its going to be in the low 70s (F) tomorrow here.
There will be plenty of wasps around. How is it there?
Doug
