Honeybees forage shorter distances and have higher nectar quality in #urban areas. Excellent project decoding waggle dances by @Ash_Samuelson @ElliLeadbeater1 @RHULBioSci #CEESymosium

Recent studies that @Ash_Samuelson worked on shows that colonies located in urban areas may actually be more successful than nests located in agricultural areas. #SciFriLive
