Hi all, I had a question.
Just out at my hives( two new this year) and noticed an exodus of drones.  Probably 15 all streaming out same place one after another.  as I watched a few came back but more kept coming back.  What could this mean?

That it's 2:00 pm.  Time to go to the DCA.

Do the orientation flights occur at the same time each day?  I have a lot of buzzing around at 5:30pm or just as the sun is going down behind the trees.  Or is it temperature?   I thought I had done something to start this but it happens everyday about 5:30-7:00.
