The June Gap usually refers to a time when there is little natural forage for bees because the Spring flowering plants have all finished and the summer ones have yet to get started. It's a time when some beekeepers may need to give their colonies a bit of a top-up syrup feed.
We don't seem to have a forage gap in the small apiary this year, but there has been a rather long gap between posts. This one is just a top-up!
