The Little Bird and the Bees, a spring tale

“The little bird enjoys the blossoms of his maple tree high above the ground. All of a sudden, a mysterious humming sound sends the little bird on a journey to a magical world of flowers and bees.

“However, the red fox is not far away and tries to catch the little bird. Little does the red troublemaker know that a rather unpleasant surprise awaits him at the beehive.”

See what happens to the fox, the flightless Little Bird, and the Bees (Der kleine Vogel und die Bienen) that live on a nearby hill. The animated short is one in a Little Bird series by animator and illustrator Lena von Döhren.
