Do honeybees demonstrate a decided preference for natural sources
(nectar) of glucose rather than sugar water feedings if given equal
access to the food supplies? I guess that I am asking if a newly hived
package of bees will ignore sugar water when, for example, white clover
is blooming.
Thanks.

Gerald
