Yes, the bees you are seeing now are
robbers.

Two days ago we checked on my hives because we saw no activity around them despite the weather. Inside we found some small clusters of bees either dead or comatose, but nothing else. There was still capped syrup. Today there are bees buzzing around and inside. They seem to only be geting into the stores. I see no sign of queen or brood. I'm guessing that they didn't have large enough numbers and froze, and I now have robbers. Does this sound right? |
