I think you are right about the bees, could be the hot temps had them in their hive trying to keep the queen cool by fanning her with their wings. Our daughter in law and son are raising bees in Idaho, I'll ask her if her bees stayed home more during that heat wave. Another record picking today, only two days since the last picking, got 455 today but it took me over two hours to pick them.
