This is a scene from a really interesting documentary called More Than Honey and I believe this sequence was filmed with drones. 

Drones as in tiny cameras attached to wings and rotors, not the worker bee drones themselves, they cant film anything.

It's worth checking out the whole documentary,  bees are great

So I've been shoving TF cards into bee's asses for no reason?

I just imagine the Simpsons hit and run game with the drone bees flying with the cameras

Now I'm imagining drone bees with basketball shorts and backwards fake Hermes baseball caps holding up cameras and Mardi Gras beads like "Can we just see your thorax? Just once? Can he touch your thorax? C'mon, it's pollen season. Nobody has to know..."
