Is it usual for bees to be picked up from pollination service while 
foragers are flying? (wild blueberries in Maine, specifically)

I've had a Facebook report this season of a dog being stung to death by 
abandoned angry foragers.  It is alleged that this incident took place 
late in the afternoon after bees were pulled at noon time.

I make the assumption that if the bees are to go on to another crop 
shortly, that having the foragers would be important.
