Bees do not fly in weather cooler than 13C 
Which bees are these? In February I saw 2 colours of pollen going into a hive at 6 degrees C and 2 days later at 9C they were flying as if midsummer! I haven't done a proper check but from colour, tomenta width and the wing venation of the far too few that I checked to be scientifically valid they appeared to be AMM.
