Maybe it goes all the way 'up the (protocol) stack', at each level with the eye/optic nerve at the lower levels and religion/politics at the top level ?
That BBC doco you posted looks like a good one too, Mark .. thanks for that .. I hadn't seen it before .. but what's to say the bees can't also smell the honey ? How do bees navigate at night ?
PS: QUOTE (from Wiki):

there are three types of receptors in the honey bee eye: 1) UV receptors, 2) blue receptors, and 3) green receptors. The three receptors are dominated by three rhodopsin-like pigments. These pigments have maximal absorbance at wavelengths corresponding to 350 nm, 440 nm, and 540 nm.

PPS: It seems there are
'odor plume advocates', also.
