Download or read book Honeybee Democracy written by Thomas D. Seeley and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-20 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How honeybees make collective decisions—and what we can learn from this amazing democratic process Honeybees make decisions collectively—and democratically. Every year, faced with the life-or-death problem of choosing and traveling to a new home, honeybees stake everything on a process that includes collective fact-finding, vigorous debate, and consensus building. In fact, as world-renowned animal behaviorist Thomas Seeley reveals, these incredible insects have much to teach us when it comes to collective wisdom and effective decision making. A remarkable and richly illustrated account of scientific discovery, Honeybee Democracy brings together, for the first time, decades of Seeley's pioneering research to tell the amazing story of house hunting and democratic debate among the honeybees. In the late spring and early summer, as a bee colony becomes overcrowded, a third of the hive stays behind and rears a new queen, while a swarm of thousands departs with the old queen to produce a daughter colony. Seeley describes how these bees evaluate potential nest sites, advertise their discoveries to one another, engage in open deliberation, choose a final site, and navigate together—as a swirling cloud of bees—to their new home. Seeley investigates how evolution has honed the decision-making methods of honeybees over millions of years, and he considers similarities between the ways that bee swarms and primate brains process information. He concludes that what works well for bees can also work well for people: any decision-making group should consist of individuals with shared interests and mutual respect, a leader's influence should be minimized, debate should be relied upon, diverse solutions should be sought, and the majority should be counted on for a dependable resolution. An impressive exploration of animal behavior, Honeybee Democracy shows that decision-making groups, whether honeybee or human, can be smarter than even the smartest individuals in them.
Download or read book Loon written by Susan Vande Griek and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gorgeously illustrated, lyrical non-fiction picture book about loons. It’s summertime, and as darkness falls there is a haunting sound from the lake — Ooh-hoo-oo, ooh-hoo-oo. It is a loon calling to its family across the water. This lyrical story follows the life cycle of two loon chicks. We see them breaking out of their eggshells, then learning to swim, find food and avoid predators such as snapping turtles and big bass fish. After they learn to fly, they migrate to the ocean. And when their striking black-and-white feathers finally emerge, they fly inland, each to find a new lake territory and mate. Accompanying Susan Vande Griek’s poetic text are Karen Reczuch’s gorgeous illustrations, which show the loons as they grow from tiny downy chicks to majestic adult birds. An afterword provides more information on loons, including their amazing diving ability, the meanings of their calls, and the environmental threats that they face. Also illustrated are five different types of loons and other animals that can be found in their lake habitat. The illustrations were researched in the Ornithology Collections at the Royal Ontario Museum, and Ron Ridout of Bird Studies Canada consulted on the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Waggle Dance offers advice and mentorship in a humble and intimate way, using first-person narratives, tender letters to a child, Bible verses, and thought-provoking questions. Simply put, a waggle dance is how bees share information to help each other survive. In The Waggle Dance, Courtney Youngs shares important lessons learned from her own mentors and life experiences. In a playful, storytelling style, Courtney cuts through the confusion in life and helps us see clearly the rich rewards our experiences can bring us. Youngs’s stories each contain a hopeful message, which will motivate you to think better, do better, be better. You will learn that When you’re stuck in the past, just keep moving forward. When your path feels long, remember that our paths are seldom straight. Life is for the figuring it out—the loving, the messing up, and the waking up every day grateful that you get the chance to try it all again. Using the theory that hard seasons are our best teachers, Courtney talks about death, divorce, new careers, unlikely relationships, and her journey of becoming a mom. She introduces readers to some of the most influential people in her life and shares her discoveries in faith, friendship, and everything in between. Each chapter ends with motherly advice in the form of a letter written directly to her son, “Little Bee.” Her approach is one of humility, as a learner and not an expert who has it all figured out. The Waggle Dance comes from the perspective of a trusted friend, someone to help you see your way through the hard times in life—with a few laughs thrown in.

Download or read book Ballroom Biology Recent Insights into Honey Bee Waggle Dance Communications written by Roger Schürch and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The honey bee waggle dance communication is a complex, unique, at times controversial, and ultimately fascinating behavior. In an elaborate figure-of-eight movement, a returning forager conveys the distance and direction from the hive to resources, usually the nectar and pollen that is their food, and it remains one of the most sophisticated, known forms of non-human communication. Not surprisingly, since its discovery more than 60 years ago by Karl von Frisch, the dance has been subject to investigations that span from basic biology through human culture and neurophysiology to landscape ecology. Here we collate recent advances in our understanding of the dance.
