Sounds to my uneducated ears like bees hiving. IIRC a bunch of individual bees go out and find potential spots for a new hive, then come back and communicate with the hive details like where it is and what it’s like. Then the hive picks one of the spots and all of them who are going to go to the new hive go.

That’s exactly what it was. But the sheer odds of them settling on my house the same day as I worked a game a fair distance away at a park that happened to be in their path to their new home? Pretty fucking high.
