Scientists trained honeybees to recognise human faces, showing how tiny brains can distinguish faces by the arrangement of their features

Honeybees can be trained with nothing more than the promise of a sugary reward; they learn to pick out a specific face and keep picking it out later, even when it appears from a slightly different angle or sits among faces they have never encountered before. It is a strange and slightly humbling discovery, not because bees have any use for recognising people, but because it forces a rethink of how much brainpower a task like this actually needs.
