Bee swarm in Carnoustie? Help is a minute away.

Carnoustie is an Angus coast town between Dundee and Arbroath, world-famous for the Carnoustie Golf Links and its demanding Championship course on the Barry Links. The links grassland between the town and the shoreline carries white clover and bird's-foot trefoil through midsummer, and the coastal dunes east of the course add sea rocket and sea holly. Barry Buddon — the military training ground east of the links — is a Site of Special Scientific Interest for its coastal heath and gorse scrub. The residential streets behind the golf course have established gardens, and oilseed rape grows on the farmland to the west and north.

Oilseed rape is the defining Angus spring flow: the wide floor of Strathmore carries dense April–May sowings from Forfar eastward to Carnoustie, filling supers quickly on settled days. Hawthorn, wild cherry and sycamore follow on the hedgerow field margins and estate woodlands of the inland vale. White clover is abundant on the improved coastal grasslands and golf course turf between Monifieth, Carnoustie and Arbroath through June and July. The coastal clifftops carry bird's-foot trefoil, thrift and wild thyme. On the higher ground of the Angus Glens — above Kirriemuir, Edzell and Brechin — heather starts in late July and carries through to mid-September, offering a productive moor crop for those who move colonies to the hill.
