So I was out trimming the hugely overgrown bushes in the front yard today--no, that's not a euphemism--and as I was starting on the third overgrown monster I realized there were bees all around it. At any given moment I could easily see 50 of them. (This is a really tall bush/shrub thing, probably 12 feet tall and 10 feet in diameter, and it has little white blooms of some sort on it.) Does this many bees mean there's a hive somewhere close by? Do I need to do anything about it, beyond trimming the stupid thing back in the evening when the bees aren't out?
