Extract

On June 2, 1946, I was digging into a compost heap, made of weeds and sods in 1945, and soon came upon a bumble bee's nest. It was in a clean and apparently unused mouse nest, eight inches from the surface of the pile, and entered by a tunnel opening on the northwest corner. There were seven cells, two of them empty.
