>>Nectar, not honey, is the natural food of bees. Honey is the equivalent of  
'hard tack' which has to be converted back to something nectar-like before 
they  can use it. Why should they bother when times are good?
 
That's true but they have been capping this spring's crop.  It would only save them work to rob last year's honey and cap it alongside the spring honey.  My guess is the abundant's nectar's aroma is more captivating than last year's honey.
