Bees Go Quackers!!
Scientists using highly sensitive vibration detectors have decoded honeybee queens' "tooting and quacking" duets in the hive.
Worker bees make new queens by sealing eggs inside special cells with wax and feeding them royal jelly.

So when one hatches, its quacks turn to toots, telling the workers to keep the queens , still quacking , captive. The queens responding to each other can be plainly heard.
It has been assumed that the queens were talking to other queens -possibly sizing one another up vocally to see who is strongest but there is another explanation.
