My bees seem to spend a lot of time just sitting on the front edge of the hive until it gets warm and them they fly off to search for honey. Some nights you can find several dozen that seem to be out all night.
Is this something to be concerned about?

Hanging out is all dependant on the weather and hive
congestion.

Are your bees crowded?? If not, no worry.

And welcome.
