I wanted to try making a video of the bees using the slow-motion function on my phone and finally got around to it. It turned out really well. Watch the bees coming and going along their mini honeybee runway. They could actually use an air traffic controller! Watch closely in full-screen mode and you will see two bees collide. There are also several bees at the entrance beating their wings to circulate air and cool the hive.
