How do you, therefore, account for the fact that when we move a beehive, the bees clearly look for it where it was? Where does the information of the previous location of the hive reside, which they are obviously comparing to what they are seeing now?
They must have a memory, but if they swarm and you hive it close by, they don't all fly back to their old home which poses the question: How do bees forget?
