Return a copy of a Series excluding elements from groups that
        do not satisfy the boolean criterion specified by func.

        Parameters
        ----------
        func : function
            To apply to each group. Should return True or False.
        dropna : Drop groups that do not pass the filter. True by default;
            if False, groups that evaluate False are filled with NaNs.

        Examples
        --------
        >>> df = pd.DataFrame({'A' : ['foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'bar',
        ...                           'foo', 'bar'],
        ...                    'B' : [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
        ...                    'C' : [2.0, 5., 8., 1., 2., 9.]})
        >>> grouped = df.groupby('A')
        >>> df.groupby('A').B.filter(lambda x: x.mean() > 3.)
