3D flightpaths reveal the development of spatial memory in wild hummingbirds

This study uses hidden Markov models to analyze hummingbird flightpaths and shows how spatial memory develops, revealing shifts in reliance on landmarks over learning trials.

Floral vibrations by buzz-pollinating bees achieve higher frequency, velocity and acceleration than flight and defence vibrations

This study compares vibration properties in Bombus terrestris audax during flight, defense, and floral buzz-pollination, finding floral vibrations have the highest frequency, velocity, and acceleration.
