Hi guys,
Does anyone know in what height do bees fly during swarming? We're dealing with an airport management about having some colonies just outside the airport perimeter and their only concern is that during swarming periods, when large volumes of bees fly together these can be dangerous for planes, due to the fact of clogging air intake filters in the engines. Therefore they need to confirm how hight do swarming bees fly. Any idea?
Thanx
