>>> There is a part of the season (in late summer) when colonies grow
winter bees - and bees born before and after that will not survive.
This is true in all temperate climates. Bee turn the brood cycle over to
raising winter bees meant to last longer and fly less, this brooding
usually happens with the first frost while the cluster still has a lot
of bees in it and before the let their numbers decline for winter.
