The famous “waggle” dance contains information about the whereabouts of nectar, just as was originally proposed in the 1960s, scientists now claim.
The theory met with scepticism, partly because people did not believe bees could decode such a complex message. But now radar tracking has proved they do follow waggle dance instructions.”
