This can be done individually or collectively, such as in a hive of bees. They fulfil their inherent purpose, and seldom go to hockey games for entertainment and/or gratuitous violence.

What if trees could talk to each other? How do you know they don't? And if they do, what do they say to each other? And how is it that we can't hear what they say? After all, the dance card of your average tree is not all that full, and they have lots of time to learn to talk while we are busy babbling at each other.
