It is well-known that bees seem to prefer filthy water when foraging. They are always collecting water from a ditch near the hives and also from the potted plants in my garden.
Now that everything is drying up I put out water feeders, which they ignored - until I sprinkled compost into the feeding area. Now they are all over it!
