It's probably normal but being totally new I'm not recognizing what's happening.
I installed a strong nuc next to a recently installed weaker nuc.
I put an entrance reducer on the weaker one expecting robbing by the new stronger one.
What I'm seeing is the normal very casual behavior that I've gotten used to with the first hive but the new one is having a lot of activity around the front of the hive.
What I mean by that is a lot of bees flying and hovering around the entrance. Not necessarily aggressive but very excited it seems.
What gives?
