How To Get The Most Out Of Your iPhone As A Reporting Tool - 10,000 Words

A honey bee has no reporting tool about a new source of food.
So she'll have to "dance" to the fellow bees.

"Honey bees are known to communicate through many different chemicals and odours, as is common in insects, but also using specific behaviours that convey information about the quality and type of resources in the environment, and where these resources are located. 
The details of the signalling being used vary from species to species; for example, the two smallest species, Apis andreniformis and Apis florea, dance on the upper surface of the comb, which is horizontal (not vertical, as in other species), and worker bees orient the dance in the actual compass direction of the resource to which they are recruiting."
