COMMUNICATION AMONG BEES. 



I thee left off observing ; but during the whole of this 

 time no other bee had come to the comb. 



October 9. — I took a bee (No. 11) out of the hive 

 and put her to some honey : she returned and kept on 

 visiting it regularly. 



October 10. — This bee came to the honey at 

 7.30 A.M., and went on visiting it ; but I was not able 

 to watch her continuously. During these two days no 

 other bee came to this honey. 



October 11. — No. 11 came to the honey 



Another strange bee came. 



At 11.52 she returned. At 11.55 went.
