Setting up a bumble bee nest is something I have often considered doing as a fun project, but like
many of those things I just haven't gotten around to doing it yet.  One concern I've wondered
about is how well they would survive near honey bees.  It seems to me honey bees could easily
overwhelm any bumble bee nest and steal what little honey bumble bees produce.

Regards,
Dick Allen
