Bees are capable of deductive reasoning

[Still Waters]

We've known for a while that bees choose their flowers based on what they see other bees doing. This type of learning by observation is a fairly complex social behavior. So how did bees master it? Now, a group of scientists say it all comes down to how bees use logic.

Almost all living beings have cognitive activity at different rates and levels, I see it as a part of nature, but it surely is interesting to note and learn the different rate of specific cognitive activities of different species. I think that most of what is noticeable is according to what the species do

Bees are absolutely amazing.

What they do for their colony and unwttingly for humans is, to me, beyond comparison.

They need to learn to stay away from crops sprayed with pesticides and those Zombie Flies. That I wish they would learn and people need to learn how not to harm them.
