Yes, bees can easily fly from the ground. If you find a bee that seems unable to fly it may be cold -- they need a body temperature of over about 70 degrees F or they cannot fly -- or it is possible the bee is at the end of its life. Honey bees in particular will fly until their wings get too tattered for them to fly any further, then they will die.

However, a swarm of bees is basically the bees setting out to find a new home/nest for part of their colony - leaving the rest in the hive to build it up again.

Do bees move a natural hive?
A hive is an artificial home provided for honey bees by a beekeeper. Once bees are settled in the hive (or wild colony), they usually stay there and don't move.
Can you remove a hive located outside once most of the bees are dead?
No. If there are still some bees alive, you can get seriously stung. And Trying to move the hive will make the bees madder.
Can or cannot bees within one hive comunicate with bees from another?
Bees in one hive typically do not communicate with bees from another since they usually will not allow bees from another hive to enter their own hive.
What type of habitat does a bee need?
a bee needs a home, a hive, the hive needs to be where it wont get ruined and the bees have to move to another
How do I move honey bees that are building a hive in my compost barrel And can I purchase a hive to move them into?
You will need the help of a competent beekeeper as this isn't something you will be able to do on your own. Firstly, they may not be honey bees, Secondly, bees are notoriously difficult to get out of a compost heap and usually don't survive the ordeal.
How do you relocate a beehive?
Firstly, do it in the evening when there are no bees out foraging, and block the entrance with sponge and strap the hive sections together.Secondly, there is a saying: 'You must move a bee hive less than three feet, or more than three miles'. This is important because bees learn the location of their hive and usually forage within a three mile radius, although they can go further. If you move a hive more than three feet, foraging bees will return to where the hive was and will not recognize the hive in its new position, so will be lost.If you move a hive further, but still within the bee's old foraging area, they will again try to return to the original hive site.The only solution is to move the hive well out of the original foraging area. The bees will then learn the new location of the hive and a new foraging area and all will be well.There is another part to the saying: '... and don't move them back within three weeks'. This is because the foraging life of a bee is about three weeks, so if you move them back within the original foraging area within that time the older bees will be confused. After three weeks there will be few, if any, bees that knew the original area.

Why do bees kill other bees?

Do any bees live in a frozen hive?
Honey bees do not hibernate. In cold weather they will cluster together in the hive and vibrate their wing muscles in order to generate heat. The temperature in the centre of the cluster will be in the order of 35 to 40 degrees Celsius, and bees on the outside of the cluster will move in as they cool off. Provided there are enough bees to maintain the required temperature and there is not too much heat loss through the hive wall, the outside of the hive can be completely frozen and the bees will be unaffected.
