This is my first post to Bee-L.
I've had my bees trained on the bird bath (full of stones) as their water
source, but just in the last 2-3 days I noticed an abrupt change in the
number of bees there. Prior to this at any one time there were always a
dozen or two bees and suddenly there were none (as in zero). What if any,
is the correlation of water gathering to brood rearing? The weather has
been the same over the past 10 days to 2 weeks.
