Rajiv asked:
Does anyone know about any sort of tracking system applied to any kind of
bees in the past ?

Marking bees at the hive and then checking for the marked bees at the food
source is the only method I am aware of.

Rajiv said:
What CNN is doing certainly interests me for some of the
non-Apis bees behaviour and foraging range tracking.

As usual the main reason for the Georgia tech research is not bee research
but military to develop a tracking for tanks in the field and crowd tracking
as talked about on CNN.

If I hear from Jerry B. I will ask Jerry your question. Jerry and another
member of BEE-L are working on bees locating mine fields in Missouri for the
military over the next two weeks.
