No pollen, nectar for bees in Routt County, Colorado
8/3/2021 12:28:36 PM



CATEGORIES:
Plants & Wildlife
AFFECTED AREAS:
Routt County, CO

Start Date: 7/23/2021 -  
Flowers in northwest Colorado do not have enough moisture to produce the pollen and nectar that bees need to produce honey, which may leave the bees with insufficient honey to make it through the winter. The hives are not producing drones for some reason. Beekeepers were expecting to lose bees over the winter. Steamboat Pilot & Today (Colo.), July 23, 2021
