Description
Bees have a fascinating way of navigating their surroundings, using a range of tools to find their way to specific spots. By examining their behaviour, scientists have gained insight into the complex world of these tiny creatures. In "What a Bee Knows", entomologist Stephen Buchmann explores the remarkable abilities of bees, including their navigation, learning, communication, and memory. Buchmann delves into the world of bee biology, visiting the laboratories of noted bee biologists who have spent their careers studying the questions that most of us never thought to ask. From the way bees perceive their environment to the possibility of bee dreams, this book invites readers to experience the alien world of these incredible insects. As we explore the world of bees, we are reminded that the world is more complex than our senses can tell us. With its infectious sense of wonder and curiosity, "What a Bee Knows" challenges our idea of a bee's place in the world and invites us to see the world in a new light.
