Some days both of my hives seem to hold Happy Hour from about 3-4 PM. A huge number of them come out and just fly around in front of the hive. The temperature was not excessive during Monday's party, and in fact I'd just opened the lower vents on the SBB, so they should have been running a little cooler than normal. Most of the flying seems to be orientation flights.
I did notice one carpenter bee investigating a hive. Maybe one of those rascals tried to enter and set off a defensive flurry? Who knows what goes on in the Hive Mind?
