popsicle Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 If it's not obvious, you need to shoot bees in a pattern that traps the yellow ones so they make beehives (easiest way is to start from the edge and work out from there). Once I have the whole row made, I stay still and shoot between them to try to pick off the white bees, which don't get trapped. Usually, the hummingbird when she enters will fly right in front of you if you are still, and you should get rid of her right away. If she eats one of your crucial honeycombs, it's not easy to recover. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to get some beehives going and the points mount up fast, but then that damn hummingbird comes and kills my nest and then everything goes to shit......
