Moved a Nuc Need Opinions

[HAB]

After dark last night, sealed up a Nuc (Nuc A) and moved it about 100yrd, opened entrance, propped branch in front of entrance.

Then 10:00 this morning all the foragers are in an empty Nuc (Nuc B) two feet from where the Nuc A was moved from.

While working nearby noticed a single bee on the right side of Nuc B SURROUNDED BY WORKERS touching her with their antennae. They did this for about a minute then they all moved inside.

Nuc A is still packed with Bees.

Question: Do you think that was the Queen from Nuc A, another Queen, or laying worker?

Have looked and looked for a Queen in these Bees. But they are so small and fast no luck to date. This one was at an angle such could not tell (next to a wall)

Did you have a laying queen? If so, my bet is she is still in the nuc you moved. If you had a virgin out on a mating flight, she might have returned to old spot. Look for eggs/new brood in A.

Thanks, kinda what I was hoping happened. Man, those Queens are hard to see. Nuc A is 3 full frames, 1/2 frame, and just starting on frame 5 with a house full of Bees. It has been the fastest growing and most packed to date.
