natural sugar, it is also delicious.
Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However,
the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take
the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in trees, and it is difficult
to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey
have a strange and unexpected helper - a little bird called a honey guide.
The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it
does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房). The
little bird cannot reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees' nest. So,
when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide
gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and
people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from
time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest.
When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the
delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and
the wax, always fall to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its
share.
Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes
eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds
seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly
arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even
enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.
