Creating Mining Bee habitats at Paxton Pits

 We spent Thursday morning cutting some vertical faces to one of the banks on the Paxton reserve and also in a smaller gully. In addition, we dug an approximately one metre square pit with vertical sides, piling the spoil up to create a mound. Even while we worked solitary bees started to show an interest so we have our fingers crossed for lots of nesting burrows in these sites.
