Honey Bees

These guys took up residence in what used to be a squirrel's nest a couple years ago. I was thrilled to see that they are still there this year. I am planting raised gardens with their favorites so they don't have to go so far for foraging. As we get more sun, they are becoming more and more active. What else should I be doing for them?
