Fig. 2. Learning experiments. (A) Successive flights of a bee trained with a single landmark. (i) Flights to a feeder while it was moved toward the final training position. The feeder was moved on the connecting line between entry (black square) and center of landmark (thin line at far right). Arrows point to feeder positions. A single unsuccessful flight was excluded. (ii) Flights 1–20 performed after the bee learnt the final feeder position. (iii) Flights 51–70. (iv) Flights 101–120, after which the bee ceased to return. (B) Flight duration over successive flights after training. The duration of the approach to within 25 cm of the food hole of 119 successive flights is shown as dots, together with a smoothed spline function to emphasize the trend. Five unsuccessful approach flights were excluded from the analysis. Numbers with lines indicate days at which experiments were performed.
