How do bees find flowers?

  • ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ 5

Bees find flowers using a combination of visual cues, scents, and ultraviolet light detection. Their compound eyes can see colours and patterns, including ultraviolet markings on petals that guide them to nectar. Bees also use their keen sense of smell to locate flowers from a distance. Once they find a productive flower, they perform a waggle dance to communicate its location to other bees in the hive. This efficient foraging behaviour supports both their colony and plant pollination.
