We have had honey bees coming around for years, but lately they have been doing something I have never seen. Swarming to a small planter I am starting seeds in. Why ?

Is it dry there? Maybe moisture…

Might try reposting in the OT DIY on the bee keeping thread pinned at the top… 2cents

Dark soil is warmer, maybe heat?

We have had a few small rains in the last couple weeks, and I have a feeder and 2 Saucers filled with nectar about 10 ft. away.
