They have found a new bee species that builds nests in solid limestone rocks in the southwestern US desserts.
They actually live in sandstone not limestone. It must have been late when I typed this
Somehow these little bees wear holes in the rocks so they have a place to live.

At a time when we keep hearing about be deaths it is nice to hear about bees that are doing well. They are tough little bees when you think of how hard they have to work to build their nests.
