Brian distracted me with his post about his trip and I forgot, or maybe I have ADD.

Anyway, I was working on the back wall of the house inside the 2nd story screened in deck Today. It was about 5:00 and I was done, hot and muggy again today. Sat down with a beer on the patio under the deck to relax. I look out and near a tree, I'm guessing about 75' away, I see this cloud, close to 20' up At first I thought flying ants. We have them and every year or so they just rise up out of the grass, millions of them. They hang around for 30-45 minutes then they're gone.

So I kept looking at this cloud but it's not dark like flying ants, it's yellow, and I can see individual whatever's flying around. So I keep looking and listening and I can hear a buzz from them. Bees, thousands or them. Now there is a lawn service cutting the lawn across the street next to our house, we're on a corner. He's using a commercial zero turn and they're loud and I can still here the buzz.

Went and grabbed the camera but the battery was dead, thought about using my phone but it was too far away for that. No way I was going out there to get a picture. Lynda was upstairs in our bathroom and I told her to take a look. She didn't have her glasses on, she was looking through the window and the screens on the upstairs deck and she could see the cloud of bees and she can't see shit without her glasses.

The tree is about 50' tall, has several knot holes where small animals go in. Don't know if I need tyo have something done about it but I know I'm staying away from it.
