I was catching a swarm yesterday at mid-day while perched on a forklift, and, as
I was about to shake and brush the tree limb to drop the bees into the boxes, I
noticed some tiny insects -- that looked to me like whiteflies -- flying near,
and it almost seemed into, the cluster of bees.  I went and got my camera, but
the tiny bugs do not show up in the picture.

Does anyone know what I saw?
