There's a window in the coffee station on the first floor. It's hard to see anything out of it with the fridge in the way. A couple of days ago the Catman claims he saw a bee through the window, a bee which was tunneling into some loose rocks. He explained to me that he had watched the bee fly into the tunnel, grab a rock with his front claws and then back slowly out of the tunnel - there wasn't enough space in the tunnel to turn around yet (presumably, this was one of the things the bee was working on). He said he's been going back every day or so to check on the bee and see how his tunnel is progressing.

It took me ten minutes to grasp what he was talking about (see above), and when we finally went down there the bee was gone. I asked him why he thought a bee might be building a tunnel if it already lived in a hive and he said it's nice to have some alone time sometimes.
