Humidity-tolerant rate-dependent capillary viscous adhesion of bee-collected pollen fluids

When bees carry pollen, it sticks to their legs and it can be carried without being dropped in a range of different humidity conditions. Here the authors find that the adhesive holding the pollen together consists of two phases and the oily phase stabilizes the aqueous phase with respect to humidity...
