@felicitymuth.bsky.social starts our day with a plenary on bumblebee cognition. Bees get different rewards from plants (nectar, pollen, heat, resin, etc.), but cognition studies usually only use sucrose solution. Turns out bees learn both pollen & nectar, w asymmetric effects on learning!

You know that amazing feeling when you’re searching for an experiment that you think someone should have done, and then you find it. And the more niche the topic/ experiment, the better the feeling when you find it.
