Not necessarily. It depends on where you are and the season. Here in the UK the Spring mad rush for pollen has subsided and the bees are kicking in to nectar storage in preparation for reproducing the colony and for maintaining the remaining one over winter. It’s June 8th. Midsummer heralds a slowing of the queen’s laying rate. ---
