Too cold for bees, count extended by a week: ‘Bees like heat’

Many honey bees did not make it through the winter

Province of Utrecht – The National Bee Count will be extended by one week. The count was held last weekend, but because the bees did not show themselves yesterday due to the low temperature, it can be counted until next Sunday. “Bees like a bit of heat just like we do,” says beekeeper Sonne Copijn in the radio program ‘Utrecht is Wakker’.
