Recently, the journal "Beekeeping" published articles titled "Bee Navigation" (A.M. Korzun, 2002) and "Where is the Way Home?" (B.D. Artemyev, 2003). The authors suggest that honeybees navigate back to their hives not by the sun or land markers, but by Earth's magnetic field, treating their hive as a geographical point. However, they do not provide concrete evidence to support their hypothesis. Literature indicates that many insects, including May beetles and wingless termite imagos, use magnetic field lines for orientation. Honeybees tend to land on flowers facing east-west (Shoven, 1972). Evidence from the last century suggests a different nature to their spatial orientation when foraging and returning to the hive.
