Hi

I've been wondering if the CCD problem could be related to a  
directional disorder so bees can not find their way back to the  
colony. Do bees ever depend on magnetic field lines for direction  
and, if so, are magnetic field lines changing or becoming unstable  
possibly leading to observed problems? Do bees use other alternate  
methods of navigation such as electrostatic field lines? Would anyone  
with information care to comment?
