23. 24. Male Chaffinch
I'm not sure whether the Chaffinch paused before flying with food for young because we were near, or because he was concerned about the bees!
Such swarming of bees occurs when (upon the birth of a new queen in the nest) the old bee leaves - taking with her half of the workers, and searches for a new nest site. This particular swarm hung on this tree in North Scrubs for several days before a 'scout' bee must have found somewhere suitable.
