Have you noticed a shortage of these this year? From what I understand they have had a massive die off. I have not had a single one this year. Everything is being pollinated by Bumble bees and yellow jackets.

We're supposed to have a shortage, but as soon as the autumn joy started blooming, I've seen many honey bees every day. So, I'm not sure where they have been hiding.

I've seen plenty of honey bees here, they love my lavender, too...but I have heard of a lot of them dying. Heard something about cell phones, being the culprit. Not sure about that validity of that claim though.
