Hello hello! This week, we move on to Chapter 9 of Honeybee Democracy by Thomas Seeley. This chapter looks at how the decision making process of honey bee swarms is comparable to the decision making process of primate brains. Yes, really!

Quick correction: at the end, I say my next episode will cover chapter 10 and the Prologue. I meant chapter 10 and the epilogue. Whoops! 

Please see my website for a rundown of everything discussed today, including some handy-dandy graphics from the book, and pictures from around my homestead. 

I hope you'll join me again in 2 weeks to finish the book!
