That type of pile is more indictative of a pesticide poisoning.  Lucky it was just a few instead of a heavy blow. Your bees seem to have righted themselves.

We had that down here 2 years ago only wiped out my 2 full double deeps and hear 7 others in the neighborhood

the consensus is pesticides applied during a bloom
what a mess dead girls 3 inches deep

RDY,
I resurrected the thread while I was researching a problem I was having.  It was my first post.  Should have started a new thread.

To all who advised.  I couldn't get to the healthy hives fast enough to add to the nuc.  The queen and remaining bees left the nuc.  I learned a lot, thanks to all.
