My bees being feed on syrup are obvious not the brightest. Some still taking a gallon every 2/3 days. Do they not understand that they are no suppose to according to todays guidance
'unless it is exceptionally warm, it is getting too late to feed colonies with syrup; they are unlikely to be able to process it and reduce its content for safe storage'
Then next sentence
'However, they might be foraging on ivy, Himalayan balsam and late-blooming flowers'
if it wasn't so shiny, it would have been torn into suitably sized pieces and let next to the WC to at least have some use
