Build a mason bee house - PEA BB animal.sand.mason

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEA curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Animal Care.

In this Badge Bit you will make a house for mason bees or other types of solitary bees.



Crown Bee's "Native Bee Guide,"--offered through the dailyish freebies--has a lot of great information for how to make a solitary bee house.

Minimum requirements:
  - it must be designed to satisfy the cavity nesting characteristics of a solitary bee species in your area
  - it must be designed/located to protect the tubes from rain
  - natural/found materials and steel/wood fasteners (no glue, plastic, cardboard, plywood, stain, paint)

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 mins):
  - your solitary bee house under construction
  - your finished solitary bee house either:
      - in its final mounted location, or
      - not in a final location if the design can handle the weather without additional protection
  - describe what solitary bee species you're making a home for
