Last crop of the year

Its midday on September 26th, its miserable, close to raining, 14C at best and yet the bees are working their socks off.  The reason for all this activity, Ivy.  It started to flower really early this year and looks set for another couple of weeks.







On this apiary there are a few big old trees that are covered in ivy, and I have never seen so much flower on it.  As all the hives here are right under the ivy I guess the poor weather is not preventing the bees from flying.
