I've noticed over the last 2 years that one of my colonies produces a
greyish, very light colored propolis throughout the supers. The color is unlike
any other hives in the same location or propolis I've ever seen in hives
elsewhere. Other hives in the same yard produce a brownish to reddish propolis.
Anyone know if bees have fidelity to propolis collection or if it may be a
function of bee race/genetics.
