Una pecoreadora trabajando en una flor de azalea. En vuelo, la abeja visitará sólo una especie vegetal pero puede visitar tanto como 500 flores. Las pecoreadoras marcan su territorio floral depositando una sustancia que repelerá abejas provenientes de otras colonias sobre las flores que visiten.

A forager at work on a rhododendron flower.
On a flight, the bee will visit only one plant species but can visit as many as 500 flowers. Foragers mark their flowery territory by depositing a substance which will repel bees from other colonies on flowers they visit.
