Dont worry the bees will find a water source, they have been around longer than us. they will find a ditch, pond or creek.

Hi Darren.

I take it that bees find the water dispenser ok.

I was just googling water for bees. The page I read said that water needs to be about 1 metre diameter so they can find it easily by humidity above the water source.

It went on to say bees will not find a dish of water easily.Cliff

A bit cold today (8C) but still popping out for a drink.
