Animal behavior: foraging

Africanized honey bees create problems at three levels: ecological (competition and hybridization), beekeeping/agriculture (management and genetics), and public safety (defensive behavior). Africanized honey bees can reach very high colony densities and heavily exploit floral resources, which can reduce nectar and pollen available to native pollinators like stingless bees in Neotropical systems. Experimental additions of Africanized colonies near flower patches caused stingless bees to become le

Africanized honey bees are not constantly aggressive; they are more defensive on average and much more likely to escalate when they perceive a threat, but they behave like “normal” honey bees much of the time. Africanized colonies ramp up much faster and harder in defense than European colonies once something crosses their threshold. They respond more quickly to alarm pheromone, send out more workers, and will pursue a target farther and longer. Typical triggers include vibrations, noise (mowers

Did you know that a bee can carry its own weight in nectar and pollen? And a bee colony is full of these hard-working little bees. It's easy to spot these worker bees when they are out and about foraging for nectar and pollen. Look out for their “pollen pants” – a large collection of pollen stored on their hind legs. | Flow Hive

After a long day of foraging, this female worker bee returns to the hive and deposits nectar into a honeycomb cell. She’s already mixed it with enzymes in her honey stomach to begin the transformation into honey, a process her sisters will continue by fanning it to reduce the moisture content. #beekeeper #honey #Beehive #beekeeping #bees #nectar | Bowser Bee

Foraging for food is an important part of our birds’ day, and the foraging devices can be pretty simple. It’s ok if it causes the animal a little bit of time to think through the problem. Huxley gets to use a little bit of brainpower here to get a tough piece of meat out of this PVC connector. He will likely get faster and faster, which will cause us to think it new ways to make his food harder to get. That waddle! 🥰 | Avian Behavior Conservancy

Trees provide such a plentiful source of both nectar and pollen to help our friends the bees. Our bee spy Mira captured some honeybees enjoying the native Australian Tuckeroo and Wattle trees in her garden. What trees are in bloom in your areas right now? | Flow Hive

Bees are essential to the health of an ecosystem. A foraging bee packs pollen into tight pellets on its hind legs and then secures it with nectar. It’s an ideal home-delivery meal for the new spring bees back at the hive. #WorldEnvironmentDay 🎥A Bee's Diary | Smithsonian Channel

The Forager bee is possibly the most recognisable bee in the colony. Once she’s a mature adult, around 21 days old, her duties shift to tasks outside the hive, mainly collecting pollen, nectar, water and resin. She works in response to the needs of the colony with incredible communication and navigation skills. 🐝 She can visit up to 5 thousand flowers in a single day, yet in her lifetime, will only create 1/12 of a teaspoon of honey! She can fly at an average speed of 24 km per hour, travel up

Let’s talk about one of the lesser-known but fascinating jobs in a honey bee colony — the undertakers. As the colony grows, some worker bees take on the important job of removing the dead. These “undertaker bees” are usually around 12–20 days old — experienced enough to navigate the hive but not yet foraging. They can detect a dead bee by the special scent (pheromone) it gives off. Once they find a body, they waste no time. A single worker bee can usually drag out another bee on her own, since t
