The relationship between buzz pollinated plants and bees benefits both groups and could be why poricidal anthers have been successful evolutionarily. [9] Pollinator and flower relationships have been observed in Orphium frutescens, a small shrub that has poricidal anthers. Bees visited these plants outside of the University of Cape Town and ...
The above video shows a fascinating look at the behavior of a colony of bees in their hive. One bee performs a little dance where she walks in a circle, then does a wiggle, and walks in the ...
The more excited the bee is about the location, the more rapidly it will waggle, so it will grab the attention of the observing bees, and try to convince them. If multiple bees are doing the waggle dance, it's a competition to convince the observing bees to follow their lead, and competing bees may even disrupt other bees' dances or fight each ...

Successful bees ran faster and longer compared to unsuccessful bees. A bee may spend several minutes running around the nest before flying out again. [ 5 ] As the bee runs, it has been hypothesized that the bee may also offer a form of communication based on the buzzing sounds made from her wings.
This is a list of crop plants pollinated by bees along with how much crop yield is improved by bee pollination. [1] Most of them are pollinated in whole or part by honey bees and by the crop's natural pollinators such as bumblebees, orchard bees, squash bees, and solitary bees. Where the same plants have non-bee pollinators such as birds or ...
The flower is constructed in such a way as to make the surface almost impossible to cling to, with smooth, downward-pointing hairs; the bees commonly slip and fall into the fluid in the bucket, and the only navigable route out is a narrow, constricting passage that either glues a "pollinium" (a pollen sack) on their body (if the flower has not ...
After believing a monster was responsible for the strange noises coming from the wall near her closet for the past eight months, a North Carolina toddler finally knows what all the buzz was about.
