Honey Bees - Drones being kicked out while pollen is coming in

[CJanNH]

Thank you for posting this video David. I always wondered what happened to the drones when they weren't needed to fertilize the queen. Now I know :)

They just hang out, eat, and Mate untill their kicked out. Hmm, humans and drones are not to far appart.

I could sit and watch my bees just like this all day =)

I noticed big bees coming (or going?) into my hive today and figured my bees were being robbed... but my bees didn't do anything about it at all. Were the bees possibly drones? Their abdomens were darker in color and the bees were probably almost twice the size of the workers. I hope they were just drones and not robbers!

@StriderGTS yea they were actual drones do not worry robbing is very rare
