Echo chambers in the honeybee dance communication! We automatically detected 100K waggle phases of dancing bees and found a fascinating aspect of how bees organize their colony space. A thread.

Automated tracking of 4,201 bees at 3Hz over their lifetime reveals 2 axes of behavioral variation, lifelong consistencies in movement patterns and how colonies respond to sudden environmental change! @SmithBeeLab @j_d_davidson @tlandgraf @nebww @DDormagen biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
