I have a nuc which was in full sun this afternoon and the bees were busy bringing in quite a lot of pollen - big baskets of some bright orange stuff and smaller amounts of greenish/grey pollen. Rest of colonies were in shade and sensibly staying put - air temp must be only just above freezing. I've put a thermometer out to check.
This is the first pollen I've seen being brought in this year.
