Bees work all spring and summer to save stores for a yet unseen winter.  That
is planning. If you say they are only acting instinctively, try to prove that
assertion. Unless we can think like a bee any assertion about their intent is
idle thinking. We see them save honey for next winter and then form a human
conclusion about whether or not this is an example of planning. All is a
blind alley.
