A multitude of bees can tell the time of day, calculate the geometry of the sun's position, argue about the best location for the next swarm. Bees do a lot of close observing of other bees; maybe they know what follows stinging and do it anyway.

  • -- Lewis Thomas 路易斯·汤马斯

许多蜜蜂可以知道一天的时间,计算太阳的几何位置,为下一个蜂群的最佳位置争论不休。蜜蜂对其他蜜蜂做了很多密切的观察;也许它们知道刺痛之后会发生什么,不管怎样,它们还是会这么做。
