>Surely you know that bees never sting at a field day?

That is because colonies are normally brought in and set up specially for a
field day, usually moving them a short distance to bleed off the older bees.

In these cases that was not done -  the visit was to Micheal Mac's home
breeding apiary, i.e. a working apiary.

Best wishes
