I'm guessing the area is too cool for optimmal performance.

"https://www.google.com/search?q=honeybee+performance+at+ambient+temperatures+chart"

"The minimum temperature for honeybee flight is 54º F. The optimum temperature for flight activity is 72-77º F, but activity continues up to about 100º F before declining."
