Candace    Galen    is    based    at    the    University    of    Missouri,    in    Columbia.    And,    being    a    biologist,    she    thought,    why    not    use    this    astronomical    to    study    a    biological    one?    Specifically:    as    the    skies    would    daytime    pollinators,    like    bumblebees    and    honeybees,    call    it  ?  "What    better    activity    during    an    eclipse    than    to    go    out    with    a    recorder    and    record    the    bees?"    "So    Galen    asked    400    citizen    scientistsincluding    young    studentsto    place    audio    recorders    in    16    flower    patches    along    the    path    of    totality,    in    Oregon,    Idaho    and    Missouri.    When    they    analyzed    the    audio,    they    found    that    during    eclipse,    bee    buzzing    continued.    But    when    totality    hit,    the    bees    went    silent    and    only    the    conversational    buzz    of    human    observers    could    be    heard.    Then,    as    the    moon    passed    and    the    sun    again    lit    up    the    sky,    the    bees    their    buzz.
