I have bees in the back yard that was getting water from a plastic container
in the yard in the spring. As of lately (for the last month or so), they have
not been getting water from the bowl. I kept fresh water for them.

I have a yard about 5 miles from my house that the bees were getting water
from a pan at the faucet. Last week the man there asked me why they had stopped
watering there. I said I would pose the question to the BEE-L.

Why are the bees not watering at the same place? I don't think they have
found other sources.
