Yes a delicate balance. The ohia has been ravaged and are suffering from ROD but have shown promise of resurgence and resistance in healthier species.
The bees, wild and domestic, have their own plethora of challenges:
A mite that attacks them
A fly that attacks them
A beetle that attacks them.
Not to mention decline from overuse of pesticides.
And an overall decline from other unknown factors.
So I may choose not to touch this situation of delicate balance. Just enjoy their benefit of their presence. Their buzz filling my orchard with vibrant energy.
