The change in pattern when the bee is confined is illustrated in sketch (d). Similar experiments have been conducted with bees. They, too, will proceed in the wrong direction after release following imprisonment in the dark. After flying in the wrong direction the distance to where their hives should have been, they "recognize an error" and fly in a random fashion over a very small area. Finally using some other sense, perhaps memory of the surroundings, they fly straight to their hives. This is illustrated in Figure 3a. If a bee is moved in a darkened container from its feeding place and.
