Just went for a walk in the field next to me to see what the girls were foraging on, if anything.
Lots of red clover but they're not touching that (probiscus too short on Amm?).
Napweed still in flower but no insects touching it although my bees were on it a couple of weeks ago.
I can't see any ivy in flower yet but I think they have found some judging by the pollen colour going in.
Best was, this field is horse-sour and the household has been vacant for two years. So lots of ragworth. Thankfully I spotted only one of my bees working it. It's about one hundred yards from the apiary.
Must say I enjoyed going out and having a gander.
