The other day after I fed the cows I stood and watched them eat. As I was
looking a yellow jack bee landed on the top wire right in front of me, it was
holding a fly. In front of my eyes I watched the bee bite off the flies
wings and legs, then eat the head, with the appendages dispatched and the
head gone the bee flew off. All summer I saw the yellow jackets hovering
around the cows feet where the flies like to chew. The flies would get
caught up in the long hairs of the Scottish Highlander cows and become bee
food. This is a very beneficial relationship. Has anyone else seen this
phenomenon???...sstorch
