On a crop maybe, but when you see them in the garden they spend ages fnding another plant the same as the one they started on. They don't just flit between different species.
It was the comment about different frames having different tastes that made me ponder the possibility! Thanks

Who knows how bees really work?
I find them fascinating and I’m constantly amazed at how some research is even attempted.
I have a cast in a nuc in top of my Potting shed.
There must be maybe three seams of bees that arrived 2 weeks ago. They are foraging at all hours, even till it’s nearly dark and pollen has been goi g in the last week. The drive to survive is immense. Heaven knows what I’ll do with them but if there’s a laying queen there I will have to try to save them.
