Allan Mason (Al).......... Bravo!................That would make a LOT of sense, as,............ in the last year or so, some 20/30 beehives arrived 300 metres up the hill from our 'shack'........... We do see (and say) that we are on the 'flight path' of the bees as they seem to go down the hill over our property to somewhere (I don't know where) and then fly back over our property to their hives up the hill. Now then.....................I do not like the poop (obviously!), but can cope with it except that I would think twice about eating outside(oo-err) without cover.............as we may end up with unknown and undesirable additives to our main course !! How do we best address their flightpath (in the right way of course !)........I don't know the owners of the beehives but can find out ...... ciao ciao, S
