He had not expected that merely discovering a Fire-tailed Sunbird would reward him with an active skill and a skill book.

If he learned this skill book, wouldn't editing videos in the future become incredibly easy?

Seeing how beautiful this Fire-tailed Sunbird is reminds me of when I was little.

Back then, I loved playing with slingshots and shooting birds, but I could never hit anything.

Until one time, when I was in fifth grade, I hit a yellow-green bird. Half its skull was shattered, and its body lay quietly on the water's surface. Its feathers were puffed up and soaked through, no longer carrying the beauty and liveliness it had in life. I stared at it for a long time. From then on, I never touched a slingshot again.

That's right. Protecting animals is everyone's responsibility. Even if we don't like them, we shouldn't hurt them.

Unless those animals have harmed us or damaged our crops!

But honestly, in cities, you hardly hear birds singing. In the countryside, though, you can hear them every day.

Especially sparrows. There are just too many of them back in my hometown!

I used to catch sparrows too, but now that I'm older, and sparrows are protected animals, I haven't done that anymore.

Still, this Fire-tailed Sunbird really does have a beautiful call!

On a tree branch, the lively Fire-tailed Sunbird hopped about among the twigs, letting out pleasant chirps.

It chirped continuously.

It looked as though it were searching for something.

Seeing that the viewers in the livestream room enjoyed watching the Fire-tailed Sunbird, Lin Xuan simply switched the entire stream to the drone and had it track the bird.

Before long, however, the Fire-tailed Sunbird seemed to have found something. It suddenly spread its wings and flew into the distance.

The drone followed closely behind. When it arrived, it saw the Fire-tailed Sunbird from earlier perched on a branch, observing a beehive not far away.

?? Is this Fire-tailed Sunbird planning to eat honey?

Seeing the Fire-tailed Sunbird watching the beehive from nearby, the viewers were all puzzled.

Ink Plum Like Painting: In the wild, many kinds of birds enjoy eating honey, and the Fire-tailed Sunbird is one of them.

Oh, so this Fire-tailed Sunbird really does want to eat honey.

But isn't it afraid of getting stung by bees?

Ink Plum Like Painting: Look, Fire-tailed Sunbirds have very long beaks, and they are extremely fast. Even if they fly over, take one peck of honey, and leave immediately, the bees won't be able to catch them.

Indeed, this Fire-tailed Sunbird's beak really is long.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Fire-tailed Sunbird moved.

It spread its wings and flew toward the beehive. When it was still three or four meters away, it accelerated like an arrow and shot straight at the hive.

Then, its claws gripped the hive, and its beak pierced straight into it. In the next second, a tiny clump of yellow substance appeared on its beak. The viewers understood that it was honey.

It paused for only about two seconds before quickly flying away after succeeding.

Even the bees could not catch up to it.

Now that's something. Judging by that Fire-tailed Sunbird, it must be a habitual offender.

Haha, if we hadn't seen it with our own eyes, who would have known this Fire-tailed Sunbird was so fast? It can snatch the honey and escape immediately.

After arranging the bamboo for Panda Mother, Lin Xuan looked at the livestream room and found the viewers unusually lively.

He had originally thought that the viewers would find watching the Fire-tailed Sunbird boring, but it was nothing like he had expected.

Soon, Lin Xuan also saw the Fire-tailed Sunbird stealing honey from outside the beehive.

"Oh, I didn't expect there to be a beehive here. Doesn't that mean I can get some honey too?"

Although wild honey needed to be processed, tasting a little once in a while would still be nice.

Besides, he could take some honey for Panda Mother to try later.

Having made up his mind, Lin Xuan needed to prepare tools for collecting honey.

At the very least, he needed protective headgear and gloves to protect his hands.

He did not want to get covered in bee stings just to collect a little honey.

While the viewers were watching the Fire-tailed Sunbird,

Lin Xuan carried the bamboo back to Panda Mother.

When Panda Mother saw Lin Xuan return, she happily let out a series of whimpers.

"Did you wait long? I'm back. I brought you fresh bamboo. Hurry and give it a try."

Panda Mother gave Lin Xuan a grateful look, then shifted her body, sat down on the ground, and began eating the fresh bamboo.

As for her two cubs, they were still asleep. While Panda Mother ate, Lin Xuan returned to his vehicle and checked on the little one in the incubator.

He found that the little one had not woken up either.

He opened the system panel and searched the System Store for protective headgear and gloves.

He spent over a thousand popularity points to exchange for a set, then began putting it on.

After carefully checking it over, Lin Xuan looked at the livestream room and discovered that the Fire-tailed Sunbird from earlier had perhaps already left after eating its fill.

He switched the camera back to himself.

Wow, what is the streamer planning to do dressed like that?

With that equipment, is the streamer going to collect honey?

I remember my uncle kept bees. When he collected honey, he wore the same kind of gear as the streamer. It protects you from getting stung.

"That's right. I have to thank the Fire-tailed Sunbird. If it hadn't been for it, I wouldn't have discovered honey here. So I'm planning to collect a little and see what wild honey tastes like."
