Unlike other birds of prey, the bee hawk is a specialized bee hunter targeting ground bee and hornet nests, and its physical characteristics have evolved accordingly. Its beak is curved like a fishhook to effectively eat the larvae in the hive, its claws are not strong but are sensitive and sharp, and its scale-like feathers are densely connected like armor and can block any poisonous sting. It doesn't just have these physical characteristics. It also has excellent intelligence that uses bait such as frogs to lure ground bees and hornets and find their base. Once it finds them, the bee hawk will completely destroy the hive, including the nest, live bees, and larvae, but even this ruthless hunter is very warm to its children. In Part 1, you can see the vivid ecology of the hawk, which carries its chicks, hunts for food, and raises its offspring with utmost devotion. In addition, you can also see the kingfisher that makes fish tremble just by its presence, the exceptionally beautiful long-tailed tit, the dragonfly hunting for a sleeper, and the otter family hunting for fish. ✔ Program name: Documentary Prime - Terrible Attraction Part 2 Broadcast date: 2022.06.21
