Busy little bees just love Nectar Flow time! Nectar flow is usually during the early Spring to Summer when there is an abundance of flowers blooming and you will see bees buzzing here and there collecting the flowers' nectar ~ which they make into sweet, yummy honey. This year the nectar flow was earlier because of the warm temperatures in the late Winter.
Bees gather pollen and carry it in pollen baskets located on their hind legs. Pollen is used by bees as their protein food and to feed their babies/brood.
