The earlier energetic vibe — something like “We’re ready to swarm!” — has calmed down. Now, there's a more devoted atmosphere, almost as if they’re saying, “We’re putting all our hopes in this new queen!”

Meanwhile, the entire colony seems to be united in patiently waiting for her safe return from her mating flight.
