Has anyone ever figured out what this behavior is for? I have had Bees for a few years and this year is the first that I have seen it in my bees. This is also the first time I have left entrances reduced.

I hope this worked right
it is called washboarding .it has nothing to do with the entrance reduced.my bees do it to all of my hives and none of them has reduced entrances.i got to say ,it cool when they do it. ...schawee
the video did not work :(
Sounds like wash boarding to me
Fixed it! Should have read beemasters tutorial first!
I've read about it before but no one seems to know the purpose. All 9 of my hives do it every evening. We just chalk it up to evening line dancing.
line dancing :lau: :lau: I like it.
I think it is the bad girl, group. They have been ordered to go out and clean the deck. :evil:
