Today I was watching my hive and saw something really strange.
I saw a much darker bee come out of the hive and sit on the landing a few minutes.
He started buzzing his wings and flew to the ground.
He crawled around a while and I thought I would try and put him back on the landing.
I took a small stick and he crawled onto it. I placed him back at the hive entrance.
He sat there a few second and flew back to the ground again. He started crawling
away from the hive. I did this again a couple more times and she continued to fly
back to the ground. I have no idea if the dark bee lived or not but, I will continue to
look for more darker bees from this point.
If any has any idea why this happened. Please post for me. It would be interesting to
know if this occures with bee a lot.
