      Have a look at some of your plants to see if little round cuts have been taken out of them as the bees would have got them from nearby

      Hoverflies in the back garden have made a nest like those in the openings of a tubular chair I sit on.

      oh wow what a success! as others have said – leaftcutter bees. You might see one flying around with a piece of a leaf if you’re lucky!

      I have a big hotel but it’s not really being used. Where is best to put it?

      That’s amazing! Which part of the country are you in if you don’t mind me asking?

      You’ll hear the bees cutting the leaves too if you’re lucky. We have them in our garden and they use the same kind of thing.

      Very lucky! Leaf cutter bees by the looks of it. Would love to see some in mine

      Leaf cutter bees as others have said. Mine cut fuscia, wisteria and peony leaves 😊

      It would be funny if you are the next door neighbour to the person who was asking “what is cutting holes in my rose bushes?”!

      We had a great spotted woodpecker snack on ours. ☹️I recommend mesh on front to prevent this..

      I’ve got the exact same one and it became shelob’s lair. Never seen anything come back out

      i was going to suggest leaf cutters too. absolutely fantastic. this is exactly what bee hotels were designed for. we need more solo bees.
