Anonymous wrote:Hah! Carpenter bees I am sure. The number of posts that go up in Spring about these specific bees are funny but kind of alarming. People, the males do not have stingers. They are just big and talk a big game. They are also very curious about us humans. They can swivel their heads so take a good look at them and marvel when they come close to you staring at you in the same inquisitive way. Don't hurt them please. Remember Bee Movie. Don't be the stupid boyfriend.

They’re carpenter bees. Around this time of year, the male bees are aggressively guarding their nests. That’s why they’re hovering around and dive bombing you. The good news is the male bees don’t have stingers - they’re just belligerent. In a few weeks they’ll be done with this phase and will largely disappear.
Just leave them be and ignore them. Be impressed by their chutzpah. You’re big, they are little. And temporary.
