I caught about 30 >pollen foragers in 1 hr. The next day about 40 foragers in half an hour. I had been observing my bees for a few weeks now, waiting for good weather on a weekend to look inside. It looked as if they were just taking "orientation" flight but last weekend it was warm so I looked in a hive. There were lots of bees carying pollen, yellow, green and red!!, can give me a clue as to where these colors come from, it must be trees because I don't see any flowers. Doug.
