When bees have been unable to leave the colony in the winter due to cold weather, they will take any opportunity on an occasional warm day to leave the colony to excrete outside rather than do it inside the colony. This is known as an evacuation or cleansing flight.
I assume that you mean 36 on the Fahrenheit scale ie, 4 degrees above freezing. This is just about as low as it can get before bees will not leave their hive. On a sunny day, even when the temperature is this low, bees will leave their hive on an 'evacuation' or 'cleansing' flight rather than use the inside of their hive as a toilet.

Bees ( honey bees) become inactive at 45 degrees. death comes after they cannot convert their honey to heat their bodies. They create heat by shivering their flight muscles.
The term for the flight of bees is called a "swarm." This occurs when a colony of bees, typically led by a queen, leaves its original hive to find a new home. Swarming usually happens in spring or early summer when the colony becomes overcrowded or when conditions are favorable for reproduction. During this process, bees will cluster together temporarily while scout bees search for a suitable location for a new hive.
Occasionally, bees do get tired when flying over long distances. People who try to preserve these useful insects are encouraged to leave sugary drinks out to help the bees rejuvenate after a long flight.
No. The laws of flight as we understand them explain insect flight, including that of bees, perfectly well. The idea that bees should not be able to fly stems from an instance in the 1930s when one scientist jokingly demonstrated that bees cannot fly if you apply the calculations for a fixed-wing object like an airplane. Insects generate lift using different mechanisms than airplanes or birds do, but methods that scientists nonetheless understand.
Honey bees move by flying from one location to another using their wings. They are also capable of walking and crawling on surfaces using their six legs. Honey bees are known for their efficient and coordinated flight patterns when foraging for nectar and pollen.

what is staged evacuation
Honey bees reproduce through a process called sexual reproduction. The queen bee mates with several drones during a nuptial flight, storing their sperm to fertilize her eggs. She lays eggs that develop into worker bees, drones, or new queens.
