Last week we had a couple of very mild days while I was off so I had the chance to watch the bees for a while. Was not surprised to see them flying given the temp but was surprised to see them bringing back pollen. At least 2 different types - bright yellow and dark orange.
I haven't seen anything round me but of course am in a city so there are also lots of parks and gardens but we are about 200yds from a massive cemetery which is always filled with flowers, mainly cut.
Can/do bees forage from cut flowers?
