Well worth watching the embedded video in this Scientific American article on a film about honeybees. It's clear that some of the video is a composite of some sort, but the mating comet scene and the mating act itself is very good. Nice cigar ...

Thanks Fatshark very interesting
Incredible that they could film the mating
Interesting frames in the mating nucs too.
A better view of the frames at 1:37:
Interesting ... great film of cells being drawn out. I can't imagine they filmed that in a full-strength cell raiser as there are simply too many bees to get in the way.
Very envious of their mating site ... I wish mine was as scenic.
That filming is fantastic.
Anyone know if it is getting screened in Scotland anywhere ?
I'm out and about (on the Isle of Lewis, waiting to get an exhaust fixed) so can't check the link but I think that this may be the film one of our locals has been trying to get shown somewhere. If so it is on at the DCA in Dundee. Will check it out unless someone gets there first.

Looked up the organisation who made the original film. They want about $150 plus you need to buy the performance rights.
However, Amazon is going to release it on Oct 21st for £9.84.
Our Association is planning to have a movie night with popcorn, large soft drinks and hotdogs so this film might be a contender for the main feature
