How the insects see things around them
This is an old article from Daily Mail that I think still interesting to share with you here. If we saw the world in million of colors, to many species of insect, including bees, they can see a broader spectrum of light than average human can do.
Also from the daily mail article, this secret color world was discovered in the fifties and scientists realised that these distinct patterns were designed to act as “landing strips” or arrows, guiding the insects to the right spot.
Below are the representations of what colors are the flower will look like from the eyes of human (left image) and from a bee (right image).
