Shadow has found an evil new hobby. She’s taken to attacking the bumblebees that come out of our back porch. Yes, out of our back porch. There’s this little crack between the main cement section and another cement section. And the bees have built a nest there. One might say that it’s the bee’s fault for building a hive there, but how can it be their fault if they didn’t know any better? Shadow patrols the porch. If there’s any sign of activity at all, she attacks it. I would be happy for her if they were yellowjackets, but bees are dying out rapidly! I used to be glad that our house was used as a safe haven for buzzing friends, but it’s really more of a battlezone, with Shadow around.
We’ve been trying to get her to stop attacking, but she killed the queen. So who knows what will happen next. Besides, Shadow keeps getting her mouth stung and she won’t eat for a day or two after a sting. Maybe eventually she’ll stop…after all the bees are gone.
