As the vibrant days of summer begin to wane, our buzzing friends, the bees, embark on a fascinating journey into fall. Picture them trading their sun hats for cozy scarves as they adapt to the changing seasons. Let’s dive into the world of bees and discover how they transition from the warmth of summer to the crisp embrace of autumn.
Adapting Foraging Habits:
During this time, bees shift their focus to late blooming flowers, gathering nectar and pollen to sustain their hives through the cooler months. It’s like their version of stocking up on pumpkin spice lattes! They become more strategic in their foraging, ensuring they have enough resources to survive the winter.
Preparing the Hive:
As the days grow shorter, bees work diligently to store honey and pollen, creating a cozy reserve for the colder months ahead. The hive becomes a bustling hub of activity, with bees
sealing up any gaps to keep the warmth in and the chill out.
Supporting Our Pollinators:
You can lend a helping hand to our bee friends during this transition by setting up a Bee Raft. Providing a reliable water source helps them stay hydrated and focused on their important tasks. Consider placing a Bee Raft in your garden to support their efforts and contribute to their survival.
