Bees in April
Trees start to come into flower during April giving bees many opportunities to both enjoy the stronger sunshine and also to feed unsparingly, often repeating journeys to the same flower over and over again. Recorded April 2022.
Once again, there have been very few bee visitors to any of the plants featured in April 2023.
Sadly, bee visitors in April 2024 have diminished, it has been an exceptionally wet winter and an early spring. Very warm temperatures have brought blossoming trees on into flower during March which would normally flourish during April or early May.
