Honeybees modify flight trajectories in turbulent wind

In windy conditions, the air is turbulent. The strong and intermittent velocity variations of turbulence are invisible to flying animals. Nevertheless, flying animals, not much larger than the smallest scales of turbulence, manage to maneuver these highly fluctuating conditions quite well. Here we q...
