Bees Recognize People!
http://www.livescience.com/animalwor...ee_smarts.html
Common honey bees can be trained to recognize individual people, according to a paper published by Dr. Adrian Dyer in the Journal of Experimental Biology. The training consisted of showing the bees a series of black-and-white pictures of human faces. The bees got tasty or sour rewards, depending on their performance. The face series is exactly the same one used by psychologists to test human memory. How do bees do it? Bee brains are just one-twenty thousandth the size of a human brain. The experiment implies that there is a simpler solution to the problem of face recognition than has been discovered so far by biometric security researchers.

I certainly take it personally when one stings me!!!!! Thing is 'they all look the same to me' makes retaliation difficult...ahh forget it... in the now famous words of Abbot Arnaud-Amaury...

Wow! I wonder how long they can remember it... is it just a few hours? A couple of days? A week? A month?

Hehee, ChrisP, foxes don't have to eat anyone to get hats! They're inherent party animals! *grin*
This is so incredibly cool! Thanks for the news, Sunstone!
