Is this a drone bee? He's quite a bit bigger than the worker bees. He was much louder buzzing around as well. He seemed to come and go as he wanted from the hive entrance, but a few times it looked as though other bees were fighting with him, once a bee was on him and both fell off the hive to the ground.

Yep.  Note the HUGE round body and the eyes that grow together on top of their heads.
