As winter came the nest fell off, and some of the bees must have left. The remaining bees would just huddle there. Now they're gone too. Are native bees under threat from wasps? The reason i ask is that there's another nest nearby, on a hurricane wire fence, and its thriving. They look more like wasps, but i wouldn't really know.... just an ignorant townie...
