An obvious example would be: eucalyptus nectar is so sweet that it feels
sticky when you get on you, which is easy to do because if you shake the
flowers the sticky nectar splashes out. Orange is so low in sugar that hives
can fill up with it but yield almost no orange orange once it's dehydrated
by the bees. 


Peter,  Bad wording on my part,  I ment within a species.... IE does soybean
nectar vary in level from year to year.  Obviously the volume will vary,
but I would think the sugar levels would be consistent.
