This bee-havior does not seem far fetched to me.  I have been reporting to Dr. Larry Connor for more than two years now that I see bees in flight change course to chase off dark colored birds flying through the apiary.  I have never seen a bee succeed at physically engaging the bird, but there is no doubt that they will pursue them.
