Is there any evidence from scientific research or practical
experience that bees have memory?

If I upset them by my work in the hive and they display that
anger by their buzzing or stinging will they remember this
the next day and be the more likely to be angry again?

What about two hours later or one hour later?  In other words,
if they do possess memory how long do their memories last?
