There must be a natural hive near my land, as there is a veritable army of honeybees that buzz around everywhere working in the clover flowers. Bumblebees, butterflies, and all sorts of other insects are also at task with the clover. I never so quickly became accustomed to honeybees buzzing all around me, and bumblebees coming up to me to see what I was before I bought this place. It's quite amazing. I'm pleased at the level of honeybees, as they will help me out once I have my fruit trees.
There may be someone with a hive nearby that you don't know about. The bees can travel up to two miles if necessary to collect nectar and pollen.
