Do bees fly at night?

Ed's "the shack" bbq was inspired by the OC/LA County Fair Turkey Leg Grills. We grilled the night it was built and almost every night since!


These are my last two pumpkins each on its own vine. I thought it would be idea to remove pumpkin flowers at night since they would remain fresh for morning breakfast. I also thought that when the sun set, bees couldn't fly. As I was out picking off flowers with Mellie, she said, "Liz I hear buzzing..." as I tried to leap out of the pumpkin patch I felt a the legs of a bee crawling on my back under my shirt. Yup, I was stung.. twice! (can a bee do that or maybe it was two bees). My husband came to my recue and flicked off the stinger. While the initial sting didn't hurt, I still feel like i have the stinger in my skin. While Ed gets stung every year in the same ear, I haven't been since I was ten. Now I'm rethinking my bee hive hobby that I was planning to start.

I didn't think they were up at night either. I hope you feel better after the bee sting.
