The tits have abandoned the nesting box that they used to use - too much
predation about

However, at the weekend I discovered that it has been taken over by bees
- and it seems to be heaving with them. Looking into the hole (from a
short distance), all you can see is bees.

They aren't 'domestic' honey bees, but they look more like honey bees
than most bumbles although it is too small for a full comb or typical
swarm. I'm really pleased they have honored us with their presence.
