Prototypical components of honeybee homing flight behaviour depend on the visual appearance of objects surrounding the goal
Honeybees use visual cues to relocate profitable food sources and their hive. What bees see while navigating, depends on the appearance of the cues, the bee’s current position, orientation and movement relative to them. Here we analyse the detailed flight behaviour during the localisation of a goal...
