Fig. 10.

Bumblebees' facing orientation in the garden with different arrangements of cylinders. (A–D) One cylinder is placed 8 cm and just west of north or east or south or west. (E,F) Two or four cylinders placed 20 cm from the nest. Left panel of each column: distribution of body orientations pooled over all frames of learning and return flights. Right panel: distribution of frames in which the bee faced within 10 deg. of the nest hole. Numbers of flights are given in Tables 1 and 2. See Fig. 4 for further details. Bees' peak facing orientation in both learning and return flights is by-and-large to the north for all the landmark configurations shown in this figure.
