bee feeder
Hive nutrition station
A bee feeder is a device that provides supplemental food—typically sugar syrup or pollen substitute—to honeybees, especially when natural nectar sources are scarce.
Beekeepers use feeders during early spring, drought, or after harvesting honey to prevent colony starvation.
Common types include entrance feeders, frame feeders, and top feeders, each with tradeoffs between convenience and risk of robbing by other bees.
