Caffeine Makes For Busy Bees, Not Productive Ones
"A
caffeinated bee is a busier bee. It’ll work harder to find food, and to
communicate the location of said food to other bees. It will, however,
misjudge the quality of the food it finds, and so make its colony less
productive. The irony of writing about this as I sip an unwisely strong
espresso at 10 pm is not lost on me." (Image: Anand Varma)http://phenomena.nationalgeographic.com/2015/10/15/how-plants-manipulate-bees-with-caffeine/
