I was working my hives today and noticed an awful lot of bees with yellow on their backs so I took a few pics, different bees or pollen stuck to the hair on their backs?

young bees have fuzzy backs, they lose the hair as they get older, but that bright yellow is probably pollen stuck in the hairs. Your other bees are reacting as friend so I'm sure she is fine.
