Steve,

Is the clover suffering from drought?  If so, the plants may flower without
producing nectar.  You can break open clover florets to see or taste the
nectar.

Or, the bees may have found a preferred floral source that is more
distant.  However, I wouldn't think they would turn away from clover...

                                 Cheers,
                                 Kyle
