Talking To Strangers: Honey Birds

Believe it or not but Honey Birds communicate with humans. They guide humans, and possibly other large mammals to bee colonies. Once the mammal opens the hive and takes the honey, the bird feeds on the remaining wax and larvae.

This clip is from a BBC series called 'Trials of Life' and the episode is called 'Talking to Strangers.'
