Mining bees, or digger bees, (familys Andrenidae & Anthophoridae) nest in burrows in the ground. Unlike the honey bee, mining bees are “solitary” bees. They do not form long-lived colonies, nor do they live inside a single, well-defended nest controlled by one queen bee. Instead, each mining bee female usually digs her own individual burrow to rear her own young. Large numbers of these bees may nest near one another if soil conditions are suitable.

The things you will see at the National Watch and Clock Museum! Endless halls of watches and clocks of all shapes, sizes, and craftsmanship. At the museum they have the Engle Clock, or the “Eigth Wonder of the World.” It stands at 11′ high, 8′ wide, and 3′ deep with 48 moving figures that emerge from inside at specific times. Some of the figures include Molly Pritcher and Revoluntionary War soldiers marching to the Battle of Monmouth, and Orpheneus and Linus.
