Bees bringing in the pollen

Been playing with the bees this morning. They look really well with lots of larvae and one frame full of drone cells on one side, that'll help the local queens!!
They have cleared out the super of honey we left then to over winter and have some stores on brood frames but we will need to keep an eye on them as the drought seems to have left them short on nectar again.
They are bringing in bright yellow pollen this morning from nearby forsythia I think.
Anyway thanks to their Über pollination techniques I need to get on with shooting the spring garden footage for streetgrowers website
