Wonderful...all sorts of things there!
Yes, the same, same pic too I thinkThanks Mark. Not just with your pics, I get this with other’s pics also. Maybe something with my IPad or browser settings. Just wondered if any else has a similar problem...
Have you had a drive/walk around Eric you might end up finding what it is they are foraging on, could it be green manure of some kind white mustard?North of London something has been coming in for the last few weeks and I don't know what it is: light yellow, lemony flavour, dense but not yet capped; about 140lbs from 3 colonies on one site. If it was ivy it would have set by now. Took off the borage yesterday and left this for capping. Any ideas?
I was wondering she does look like she is stuck there and not very happy.Did the bumblebee at 45 secs get her tongue stuck.
could it be green manure of some kind

My spring honey was the usual pale, set off honey. The autumn crop is dark and runny. I must have a drive round to see if I can find what forage they are finding.All my honey has been much darker this year for some reason!
....another week for us then????Waiting for the ivy to open, feels like any day now.
Some of our ivy is going over already. But with the sun on it, it smelled very strong and sweet.....another week for us then????
