I am new to the forum and this will possibly be my one and only post. I have seen numerous post about bees in the game feeders here in Texas. I have been a bee keeper for 55 years . But in this draught here in Texas, you will find bees in anything that has sweet in it. any type of feed that is mixed usually has some type of sugar in it. corn has a natural sugar. with all the plants weeds and flowers dead the bees will feed off of anything around. watch out if you disturb them, you can have several thousand feeding in a large feeder, they are not likely building a hive, as they have to be able to regulate the temp. they can cause death too many stings. be careful.
