Bee Carrying Propolis?
While looking back through pictures I'd taken of a hive inspection during last summer I came across a picture of a bee walking around with full pollen baskets on each leg.
That's normal enough, except this bee appears to be carrying propolis.
I see propolis all over the hive (man this stuff gets everywhere) but I have never figured out exactly how the bees carry it in.
I've read, interestingly enough, that bees can unload their own pollen baskets, but can not unload their own propolis.
