Round dance

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-004954

A specific waggle dance performed by honeybees to communicate the location of food sources that are relatively close to the hive, typically within 50 to 100 meters. The bee moves in a circular pattern, alternating directions, without indicating a specific direction. This dance signals the presence of nectar or pollen but not its precise bearing.
