How do honey bees communicate?
Honey bees live in colonial hives and gather pollen and nectar from nearby flowers for food. If a particularly good source of food is found, the bee that has discovered it performs a strange dance in the hive. The angle and intensity of its dance tells the other bees where to fly to find the right flowers.
