What appears to be uncontrolled and haphazard coming and going at the hive entrance is neither. I have sat in front of the hive for many weeks with coffee in hand and observe that each bee is her own air traffic controller responding in micro changes to their, and others? flight path/patterns avoiding for the most part, collisions. Each has such lighting fast reactions that look like to us, chaotic patterns.
