Rob, It is hard to tell with the focused video. I can be more sure if I saw more of the area. But my guess would be that a Honey Bee had landed near some ground nesting bees and those bees were defending there territory. Without a bigger picture hard to tell exactly. But the other bees are much smaller and almost look like Halictidae or Andrenidae species.

There were only a couple of thousand all flying low, just off the ground, in a concentrated flight. But they were not swarming, it looked to be that they were foraging. Maybe? They also
did not look like a domesticated bee.
