Summary:
As bees gain foraging experience they
continually refine both the order in which they visit flowers and the flight
paths they take between flowers to generate better and better routes, according
to researchers at Queen Mary University of London.
Despite this, bees can be tricked into taking
tempting shortcuts between flowers even at the cost of increasing the overall
distance they have to fly.
