There doesn't seem to be a pattern when they come out, they fly off in all directions.

If you took a sight line down the pipe (from left to right) the hive is off to the right a little. The traffic seems to come from that general direction but a lot of them appear to orient to the house first.

Probably the cool kids don't fly directly in and out, none of that oh boy food, I'm making a bee line for it and I'll come straight back with a take out for you too.
No, it's just wandering around, we bad, we bad, what's this, oh food, I could eat a bite. That's enough I have to watch my wasp-like figure. Let's wander and doo wop our way back home.

Bee keepers and anyone concerned about helping all the pollinators.
If you're planting flowers or shrubs why not plant what's good for the pollinators in your hood.
If you are not planning on planting... get your ass out there and plant anyway!

You must know where there's a vacant lot or idle land where you can stick them.
Even in pots if you want but that means keeping a close watch on them so they don't die of thirst.

This information is for Mid-Atlantic, NC, VA, WV, DC, MD, DE, NJ, and half of PA. The other half of PA is
in the region that goes out to MN. This is just a sample, but no matter where you live the Xerces Society at
https://xerces.org/ will give you the straight poop.
Do it for your honey.
