A honey bee shows other bees within the hive, the direction and distance of a supply of pollen that it has found. It does this by moving in different directions and shapes on a section of comb. These movements are known as the 'Waggle Dance'.

How do bees learn to dance?
A bee's "dance" is an instinct. They are born knowing how to do it. The "dance" communicates to other bees, showing them the way to fly in order to find the flowers that the other bee has found. The queen is not the one dancing, because she is busy laying eggs. The drone bees are the ones who fly out looking for pollen, and who "dance." The angle between the direction the 'dancing' bee is facing while vibrating its abdomen and the vertical position equals the direction to the new nectar source from the hive with respect to the sun. The duration of the waggle also gives the distance. Bees are aware of the movement of the sun during the day, so can compensate for this when using it for navigation.
