Honey Buzzards and Honey Badgers are both pretty bad ass.
Honey Buzzard dont give a F***!
@@legbert123 hunter of honey or colonial insect larvae must be very badass and invincible in order to get their sweet treat
Это Осоед птица
I freaking love these two! The world needs them to maintain a healthy eco system.
Note to self: start eating more honey
😂
Those red eyes are so beautiful.
You are not allowed to work for Visine
Like blood
I have the same eyes…
@@mandlas.4305 are you an albino??
@@dustintacohands1107 no just a pure bred black man from two black parents
I was literally asking myself "how do they not get stung in the eyes", when the honey buzzard was like "I'm way ahead of you"
They're too stupid to do that. That's why he can steal their food....
like, literally? Were you literally asking yourself?
I also thought the same.
Same lol. Was literally typing out my comment "but what about the eyes" when the man on TV said something about a special membrane. But what if they sting the eye before the membrane membranes?
@@yeeaahBUDDY I was literally asking myself that question, so I dont see why its impossible that they werent too 🤷🏽♂
Honey Buzzards, Honey Badgers, Honey Bears, Honey Bunches of Oats, Honey Buns.....all awesome!
and Honey Pots‼😂
Honey I'm home
What about honey BoBo 😆
And just honey.
Honey I shrunk the kids.
NOTHING seems to bug them at all. 😊
They're catching buzz.
@@user-pi5lz3gs4s
😂😂 Good one.
😆👍👍
Bro! I was thinking of Godzilla when I was watching this video because of how impenetrable the birds’ feathers are and how they have chemicals to deter away hornets and bees! And your profile picture is of Godzilla! These birds are like Godzillas to the hornets and bees! It’s kind of coincidence id be thinking of Godzilla because of this to then find you in the comments!
@@thebosstex1172ong they gonna tell tales to their children of facing & losing the immortal seeming buzzard. their version of david & goliath😂
Narrator: “They’re built to battle killer prey. And not just hornets, but bees too”
Nic Cage: “NO, NOT THE BEES!”
“OH, THEY’RE IN MY EYES! MY EYES!”
Jerry be bee keeping. Like his daughters friend wants to bang him
and not just the hornets, but the bees, and the larvae too. they were like animals
and a yt short was born
Also beware of Statham; if he gets to know this about his beloved bees, he will hunt those birds down for sure
Not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need! ♥
This joke is not appropriate for this video. You lack both imagination and sense of humor.
Looks like a dove with a murder beak attachment
Seeing it close up, I thought the same.
Thunder Dove Mk.III
I've seen videos about Honey Badgers, but this is the first time I've heard of Honey Buzzards,, and I find them fascinating!
Why
@@mkhanman12345 Simple. Who else has feathers that works like a beekeeper suit?
Same
All names start with honey and they're awesome there's another honey at home not so awesome 😂😂
@@genikit5795why would you even respond to that asshole is the real question
Well they're doing their part in keeping the Giant hornets populations from getting out of control. It's insane and amazing they tackle those nests
Yes, each organism plays its role in the web of life. There are always strings attached.
But the sad part is they are also destroying bee's nest and eating their honey
@@LifeOdysseyMotivationThey're giant-dangerous bees!
@@CormacHollandLove how you wrote that..❤
@@LifeOdysseyMotivationat least their not killing the bee's though
This is why you tube is my favourite .I get to see all this wonder from the natural world.
Without having to get near those things…
Lol
yeah like adult men eating glue
Nature is so amazing. The best writers couldn't dream this stuff up.
What & who is nature? How can something that is not conscious, be amazing? It's like saying that brick wall is so amazing. It makes things the best writers couldn't dream up.

What a beautiful bird 😻. I’ve never heard of them.
Me neither. But it sounds like any animal whose name begins with "Honey" is best avoided. 😲
Amazing abilities didn’t know about these raptors
There's a famous photo of a honey buzzard flying off with a big piece of comb while the hapless bees try to stop it, look it up.
I have when I first saw video I thought it a hawk.
Imagine feeding on honey only, anyone will look beautiful and strong 😅
Never thought there were birds out there brave enough to attack wasp and bee nests! Crazy cool!
I mean you can afford to be brave if you're especially adapted against something.
And EVEN HORNETS!!!!
@@ceresbane your species won't get adapted against something w/o painful selection
@@aboomination897 Yeah, there was definitely an unarmored bird hitting those hives. Probably no food around, desperately taking those stings and showing it to it's buzzard chicks. I wonder how long it took. 100,000 years? 400,000 years? Over a million years? It typically takes around 150,000 years to develope a new species. I'm intrigued
@@doragonsureia7288 You can see that besides the feathers the beak has also turned into a much more average looking pecking beak opposed to the flash tearing raptor beaks. It even looks a bit like a dove with those even feathers.
Wow that bird looks absolutely stunning. Beautiful red eyes.
What gorgeous, unique birds!! A little bit buzzard, a little bit hawk in appearance! Such a fascinating avian 🥰❤️
I was thinking buzzard and dove.
It looked like the last buzzard was swallowing the insects whole. They must be partially immune at least for them to be able to swallow a stinging insect live.
I doubt a single bee sting would kill any large animal (that doesn't go into anaphylactic shock, that is). Add to that, if the insect is crushed quickly enough in the mouth it might not get to shove its ovipositor (the stinger) into a vulnerable soft part quick enough.
@@neillynch_ecocidologist If you look at 2:53 it just swallowed that bee whole. Didn't even crush it.
@@AzurePrower Birds do have tongues, you know? Insect enters mouth, tongue presses against palate crushing insect. Insects are very easy to crush. (Edit: that should read 'many are'. But hymenoptera do not have the armour of a stag beetle for instance.)
@@AzureProwerI’ve seen people eating bees whole
@@neillynch_ecocidologist You cannot easily crush a bee with your tongue and it is way stronger than a birds. And it would have a nearly 100% success rate of stinging you if you tried.
Wow, as the birds are gobbling down larvae and honeycomb, it sure looks like the occasional bee or hornet is eaten too!!😳
High protein meal.
That means they are also immune to internal stings. Crazy impressive. Highly specialized animals.
Yum! Spicy! Peppery! Bet you can't eat just one!
*I would have never thought that Honey Badgers have allies in the sky the Honey Buzzards!*
Their eyes are gorgeous
Remarkable adaptation.
Explain the process
Indeed!
@@thingserik7269 Birds get hungry and out of desperation start eating hornet larvae. Most all of the birds are repelled and die of hunger or from getting stung. A very few birds are not quite as bothered by the stings as the other birds, and they breed. Iterate this process over millions of years and you end up with the honey buzzard.
@@thingserik7269 It probably doesn't involve any fictional historical characters.
@@FlyGuy2000lol what nonsense.Millions of years😂?
God created every living thing🙏
Humans: "God, not the bees!"
Honey Buzzard: "I gotchu, bro"
Save the whales...save the smelt fish...save the cats...save the dogs. But then we get to humans, and when we get to the subject of the sanctity of human beings, as in save the babies! Oh, no!
@@rolexomegaspecialist9411 what in the ever loving hell does that have to do with my comment? Get out of here with your BS
@@RustyDockLight Lighten up 'turbo'
What a beautiful species.
Wow! Just shows amazing how nature is. Never knew of them until this video.
We need more honey buzzards!
Clone wars, begun it has
u wanna wipe out all bees and honey or wat
@@masExz Allow me to clarify. I was referring to Japanese murder hornets.
@@masExz Only honeybees, other bees are fine and safe
did the hornets beat you?😂
They are alomost like invisible to the bees. As if the bees can't see them. They are ghosts in the bee's world. Incredible adaptation. Respect for Nature... It's truly great!
I like the bug at 1:34 is like "1v1 me bro! I'm game! Are you game?! Imma clap you, time to throw hands!" after it saw the bird just fly up and yoink his entire home.
First I’ve ever heard of a Honey Buzzard, but I love them already.
Of course it is.
Yes, amazing, beautiful and I've also never heard of them before.
That's a good looking birdy !
Honey Buzzards are out there doing their part. I salute you!
Ive never had so much respect for a bird. How do we help this creature be more prosperous?
The Honey Buzzer does not need our help
Turn yourself into a bunch of hornets and make a hive.
😅@@northernprepper6981
Again proving true the line from Jurassic Park..."Nature always finds a way."
It’s “Life, uh, finds a way”
@@saneman7177 Very good job including the 'uh' - that's crucial 👍
That's a spicy meatball! 😂❤
I need a new narration from Randall.
"This is the honey buzzard. Watch it fly in slow motion..."
That's one Badass Bird!!
That’s the most beautiful buzzard I’ve ever seen.
That crunch @2:51 so ASMR and fulfilling. Team Honey Buzzard
That's added in post
These sound effects are funny asf😂
Learning something new everyday.
The amazing and continuing evolution of our modern-day-dinosaurs.
Finding obscure niches to fill ...
I'm not sure if 12 year old me would be more amazed about how they're dinosaurs or how they're basically real-life pokemon as well. Birds are so awesome and amazing
Sorry kid, frogs turning into humans is Disney nonsense not reality
@@shizmoo5536here he is, that guy
@shizmoo5536
Who said anything about frogs turning into humans?
At 2:55 a buzzard eats a bee. Is it also sting-proof on the inside?
Was wondering that too!
@@pollytiks3885 It's chewed so probably dead by then
@@hunterhq295 They don't need to be alive for the sting to work. They are probably resistant to the poison.
They’re immune to the bees and hornets sting venom
"That's ah spicy meat-a-ball ah!"
Such beautiful creatures
What a trip! I've never even heard of these birds before. Truly astonishing! 😮
They are in Yorkshire, England too. Wondered about them getting stung but amazing nature has a solution for everything, as usual. Feathers did evolve from scales, so I guess this bird being, armoured, can be taken as evidence of that also.
My father told me story of man that was playing golf and took a sip of his drink. What he didn't realize was there was a bee in it and it stung him in the throat. He died from the bee sting. Check your drink before taking a sip.
Ok...
My grandma almost met the same fate thanks to a paper wasp which got in her drink. She spit it out before it could end up in her throat, though it still managed to sting her lower lip.
I was once lapping up water from a river. There was an alligator in it. So, yes, folks, be sure to check every drink before taking a sip!
@@neillynch_ecocidologist lol🤣
Wow. I’ve heard of things like this. Thanks for sharing.
Honey Buzzard my spirit animal...

Wow!! What a fantastic Bird,with all the Tools&they look so impressive..More like a Falcon;
Yes I agree I don't know why they call it a buzzard looks just like a falcon to me too!
@@davidvaughn7752with "buzzard" do you mean buteos or vultures?
@@feuerling I mean Vultures that scavenge carrion. Not hunters like hawks and falcons that pursue live prey. This bird in the video looks more like an active hunter to my eyes.
That was nuts. Never seen that species of badass bird before.
Nature is truly amazing!
God created nature so yes it’s amazing.🙏
1:27 the way she shakes hornets off her talons 😭😭
The quality of the video looks so detailed and good…it looked like CGI for one millisecond
💗💗💗
Welp, that does it. Thanks PBS for introducing me to my new favorite bird.
This series is is called nature, which is fitting. That was the first word that came to my head while watching this.
Except those aren’t murder hornets. Wasps maybe, but murder hornets are MUCH larger than that.
Agreed those are another species of paper wasp, they weren’t much bigger than the bees
Honey Buzzards will eat Giant Hornets when given the chance too.
2:51 is an INCREDIBLE shot. Breathtaking.
They love honey...just like everyone else. The way they've adaped is amazing stuff
These birds are so intelligent!😮
Amazing!
Honey Buzzard, it's like a term of endearment - "how are you, my little honey buzzard"
Oh my, I see a business potential‼️😉
Pause at 2:52 eyes have the same color as the honey, dang nature 👀!
I wonder if that bee at 3:00 who was swallowed whole is gonna be able to sting em from the inside 🤔
They evolved to be this way so I imagine that they have some kind of protection inside as well.
Surely he got stung inside. I guess they are immune all around. Amazing specialization.
Absolutely amazing...blew my mind how they can endure the bees, etc.
They look like they’re crossed between a dove and a hawk. So cool.
Honey buzzard don't care.
I scrolled way too far to find this!
Wow!!!!
Nature is truly incredible.❤
Honey Buzzards are my new favorite animal.
1:10 huge claws!
How amazing is nature & evolution!?? ☺️
More amazing than creationism and blind belief
@@user-ft3ul5lp6zas it always has been, as it always will be.

@@user-ft3ul5lp6zEvolution lol from a fish to a bird Bird 😂
@@scouseaussie1638 it's clear that you are not educated enough...it's not that simple.
Also, you believe your god also created parasites and monstrous pathogens, glory to him
Now THAT’S gangster! 😂
Never seen something so chill while having snacks in the middle of a hornet swarm...
It actually swallowed a honey bee in that last gulp.
Good eye. A little extra protein never hurt.
She tried to save her little sisters😢
@@ryuuguu01 extra proteins certainly hurts humans.
I love birds of prey, this is my first time seeing information on the Honey Buzzard, what an amazing animal.
I loved, firstly how clever the bee's were to realize it's pointless trying to do anything except go for the odd eye strike and they had all accepted what was happening was happening!
And secondly, that final bird just contently looking around chewing larvae has gone beyond even visually registering the adult bees/hornets anymore - he literally just sees the larvae lol 😂
Those are not Asian giant hornets.
While the anti-sting defences of the honey buzzard also work against giant hornets, those tend to nest underground, and they don’t look like the hornets here.
they nest underground? Like ants?
@goku445 Yeah kinda like yellow jackets in the U.S.A. The nest structure is largely the same as those that make hung nests just an excavated cavity instead.
Sort of feel like they should have led with the bees and then transitioned into murder hornets, cause it's like starting with Muhamed Ali boxing Mike Tyson and ending On Iron Mike vs Jake Paul
Also, the birds name gave away the ending.
I love nature videos like this...... and I have an affinity to birds of prey. Plus, I appreciate the quality of images like these.
Absolutely stunning, incredible! - Wow! Thank you!
Evolution is a constant sculptor 😮God is all...including
What beautiful words...I hope you don't mind that I'm using them in a journal I'm making for my 4 yr. old Granddaughter...for when she's older and I'm gone. Thank-YOU.
Yes! First you have hornets, then come buzzards feeding on them, next approaches a mammal with a camera filming the whole process for the purpose of making money or of educating other members of the species it belongs to; after this follow individuals who comment on that entire chain, before, perhaps, there will arrive other people, again, who even read such comments and are inspired by them.
