Bumper Crop of Cherries and Apples Last Year

This is a photo of my cherry harvest in 2014 Last year I had the largest crop, by far, of cherries and apples that I have ever had. There were more honey bees last year. A neighbor near by had them but maybe they didn't survive last winter... I am not sure. I don't know that neighbor personally. Last year I had about 7 boxes of apples and this year I had one hand basket and those were being attacked by a new insect around here. They looked like boxelder bugs which barely began showing up here last year. Strange changes are happening as the climate changes and I fear it is changing faster than the climate scientists admit...
