Scientists have conducted research on the communication between bees and have obtained interesting results.
Medianews.az reports that when the number of spectators in the hive decreases or their attention is lost, bees perform their dances less accurately. When the number and interest of the spectators are restored, the dance becomes clear and effective again.
Lars Chittka from the University of London stated that bees dance better when they know someone is watching. Researcher James Ni from the USA likened this to street musicians adapting to their audience.
The study shows that the quality of communication among bees depends not only on the sender's motivation but also on the presence of the listeners. These results are considered important for understanding the dynamics of information transmission in animal communities and other distributed systems.
