Bees

The day after I posted that, I followed the remaining bees and found their main nest.  It's in the roof support of the third floor of the clubhouse!  There are two holes, one of which houses a female bee (which Mama discovered was a carpenter bee, since they drill through wood).  Daddy-o went up there and sprayed Wasp & Hornet killer in the holes, but to no avail.  They continue to buzz around.

Buzzzzzzzzzz

Today, when I went outside to feed the buns, I heard a loud buzzing.  So, I looked up and saw two huge bumblebees.
Apparently, they were trying to build a nest in the bunny pen.  They had chewed a pretty big hole in the wooden roof support.  Also, one of the bees constantly had it's head stuck in the hole, chewing.  It was pretty cool, except for the fact that they were building a nest in the bunny pen.
I tried to take a video of the bee chewing the hole, but it didn't turn out so great.  But, I'll upload it anyway:

Unfortunately, the bees could not live there.  So, my dad killed one and filled the hole.  Oh, well.  It was fascinating while it lasted.

Will Music Affect the Pulse of Rabbits?

This school year, my science fair project was bunny-related.  And I got to state!

My project was: Will Music Affect the Pulse of Rabbits?  I basically tested a control and three songs and compared all five rabbits' heart rates. 

I won my category at the Glasgow Fair, which is Animal Science.  That meant I went to Regionals.  I also won my category at Regionals.  But, when I went to State on Monday, I didn't win anything.  :(  Oh well.

Also, this week (Spring Break), we are @ Fontainebleau State Park.  Which means that the buns are not with us.  However, we have our trustworthy babysitter Leighanne to look after them!  Thanks!
