8-Year-Olds Publish Scientific Bee Study

8-Year-Olds Publish Scientific Bee Study | Wired Science | Wired.com:

This kid contributed an article to a peer-reviewed science journal. What did you do today?

“We discovered that bumblebees can use a combination of colour and spatial relationships in deciding which colour of flower to forage from,” the students wrote in the paper’s abstract. “We also discovered that science is cool and fun because you get to do stuff that no one has ever done before.”
How about that ... a precocious kids and bees story that doesn't involve trip to the hospital! Hooray science kids! (40 year-old blogger suddenly realizes his lack of accomplishment at an advanced age, slinks away silently ... )
