"She slowly builds courage" yea i feel you on that one little birdy. Wasps are no joke.
@@Yourlocalbacterium Me too. Wasps utterly freak me out. European Hornets don't, because although they are much bigger, they are not usually aggressive.
Brave and beautiful bird 🥰
Glad to know we're not the only ones with wasp woes.
Imagine how brave you would be if you had a wasp of the size of a golden retriever in your house...
More like a chihuahua.
The best home security if you could toilet train the thing. The biggest hurdles I see are:
1. Food. Wasp flight at that size would be immensely costly in terms of energy. You'd have a mini airplane on your hands that cannot use efficient fuels like kerosene or petroleum for combustion. An active, dog-sized wasp could easily out eat a whole kennel.
2. Waste. Wasps piss an awful lot! That's how big nests can ruin structures like load-bearing walls in houses.
Other than that, wasps are highly social animals. They're probably more social than your pet cat. I think you could really bond with a wasp, given the right pheromones. Best buddy for life!

Imagine having brain enough to not post stupid comments.
At one point, the wasp could well be the same size as the chicks of those birds. The last thing you want is to get wasps accustomed to paying conjugal visits in your nest. Where there is one, there will be more very soon, because pheromones are a thing.
That is just a scary but accurate point
To be honest, I have the same reaction to seeing a wasp in my immediate vicinity.
The threat display with the gaping beak and spread wings was very interesting to see! She's a brave little bird.
Yes: Imagine how a human would react to something like a 20 kilogram wasp -- I don't even like being around regular-sized wasps. I wonder if the bird knows that a bee is less dangerous than a wasp?
@@jeffmiller6954I bet they do. They must have very sharp eyes, because they spot tiny spiders and insects in our garden. But there is a catch: they seem to have trouble seeing things that don't move. They don't recognize me, when I don't move.
I hope that wasp wasn't looking for a place to build a nest. It'd be a terrible neighbor for such a beautiful bird and housekeeper 😊❤😊
@jeffmiller6954 I know how I'd react. So long as I can get to it, Mr 12gauge and the wasp will have words
@@kevinfitzpatrick5949 I wonder if the shotgun would be enough. Assuming scaling up works (which we kind of know it does not, but let us pretend) the wasp would be 1. very fast 2. very strong 3. likely have a very good natural "armor" 4. perhaps it would, with a larger brain, be more intelligent than normal-sized wasps: even normal wasps and bees show surprising cognitive abilities. Given these 4 things, I am not sure a shotgun would be enough and imagine if the wasp recruited others. I think the bird showed real courage, perhaps afraid but doing what she needed to do.
Flying insects seem to be scared of certain bird calls.
I noticed one time, a small bird came around and all of a sudden all the mosquitos, deer flies and other flying insects took off. Bird calls must sound like war horns to flying insects/bugs.
Perhaps the insects can hear the high frequency peeps that us humans can't hear. Thanks for sharing!
Send link so I can get rid of the insects here lol
@@Txdcbluesyou woukd probably have to find something native that the bugs might recognise as a threat.
I saw a device that claimed to use dragonfly buzzing sounds to deter mosquitoes.
@@Inquisitor_Vex
In my area it's bats (not birds, but same effect). I love seeing them come out to patrol in the twilight.
No Birds, Bees or Tits were harmed in the making of this film.
I'm glad, i like tits.
I see what you did there 😂😊
actually 2 first actresses died from wasp sting
No bees where involved in the making of this film. So.... Yea.
@@Mmouse_they were holding the camera
Blue tits are such brave birds, saw a similar Situation with a big bee that did dig into the moss, but the blue tit was brave and insisted strongly to throw that bee out of her nest and she did 😃 greetings from Germany 👋😃
Thanks for the lovely comment. Yes these birds are so brave yet so small, you can't help but like them
She's like me after I hear a mosquito in my room.
Thankfully I haven't had a single mosquito in my room since I have a fly screen on my window. I am terrified of the awful sounds they make. Also I am glad they can't crawl like other insects can, so no way for them to come in.
@@TheArrow1987 at least the mosquitos in your area don't give you malaria
@@BoskiM Heh. Rhymes.
She’s so cute!
Its amazing how sentient they are, If that makes sense? so much facial expressions, movement expressing intelligence, emotions and like that.. When you see them outside they seem so rigid or how to say..
Yes, they have character. They aren't just cloned copies of each other. I was also surprised 😯
It's really interesting to see her behavior when she started to notice it, first she just looked around a little bit and then when she noticed that there was a wasp she stayed vigilant. guess it's just human anthropomorphising but it really does look like she has a lot of emotion there
Birds are extremely smart and expressive animals, especially for their size. The reason they might seem more automatic and "rigid" when you're seeing them is because they're in survival mode; close to the ground, exposed, and looking for food, which means they have to be pretty focused because they're very vulnerable.
Могу быть неправа, но похоже на то, что у птицы Newcastle disease, при которой птицы начинают вертеть головой, отклоняя макушку к земле. Видела такое у голубей, в тот год несколько мёртвых на тротуаре находила в начале лета
@@Xc7gG8jdвсем похуй
She's just as wary as I am after finding and throwing out a big spider. Including making long legs and carefully looking down in case there's another on the ground. 😆
I hope the poor bird hasn't been pestered by wasps again. I love blue tits and hate wasps, so my sympathies are clearly one-sided!
My thoughts exactly! Like a human after finding a roach or spider in their room. Imagine, just when you think you're safe and comfortable, you spot a buzzing child sized critter with a 1 hit kill bite, behind the sofa. Poor bird!
I keep spiders in my house because they eat tge annoying bugs
Spiders are cool, wasps… not so much.
@@Moon_bear666 your reason for keeping spiders around is the exact reason I don't mind seeing house centipedes around.
She’s like “GET OUT AND STAY OUT!”
That thing's got to be like a flying xenomorph, to a small bird.
For real, pesky things
Now imagine the European hornet, or worse, the Asian variant.
@@Home_RichThe Asian hornet is probably the same size as her😳
Every time she spotted the wasp she made gagging motions like she was ready to puke lol
It was her battle cry
That wasp is scouting a new nesting spot for its colonie. Yikes
That’s what I thought it was doing. Yikes, indeed!!!
It's more likely looking for shelter from the rain. Insects hate rain, one raindrop can kill.
about a month ago I was walking around the attic and looked out one of the windows when I saw a wasp fly up right onto the window frame, thats when I saw that it had started building something in one of the little holes of the window frame so I shushed it out, closed the window and removed the material. went to check if any other windows were affected in the house. There were individual wasps trying to build things on all of our angled windows, so 5 of them. if I hadn't noticed sooner that would've been a bigger problem
well, I guess its not as bad as waking up to 5 hornets flying around in your bedroom at night
@@Killbayne reminding me of the summer I had hundreds of wasps flying around the kitchen in a place I used to live... No idea how they were getting in and they had no idea how to get out. Nightmare fuel.
Hopefully the nest wasn’t marked then
That wasp was looking for a place to build it's nest. That box looked like the perfect place. I hope it stays away.
FYI, most birds cannot see up close, they are farsighted. Which is why she struggled to see the wasp, all very blurry~
And I would have thought like other animals their brains are too small for pattern recognition, to identify another creature if it isn't moving. I recall standing stock still in my garden & a cat wondering right up to me with no idea I was there, giving it the shock of its life when I moved.
Another bird would be like "OH! FREE MEAL!"
I love how she thinks there's a big bug and immediately starts screaming for her husband to come over here. Same, girl.
I like how the subtitles match the birds coloring💛💙
5:30 the way she looks at the roof is exactly like me trying to spot a wasp flying around in the ceiling
Damn neck hurts
So was there a solution? Did the wasp get tired? She didn't actually despatch it.
Beautiful..I hope she stays safe from cats as well in her travels..
Omg it's so cute the male follows her home and check it's safe
Just like us finding a wasp, or other creepy crawly, in our house. Even after you get rid of it, you're paranoid for a little while after.
She's certainly a clever lady...
Impressive and lovely video 👍👍
What we can learn from nature...
Love the "let me just do a general threat display and see if that fixes the problem" 😂 and yeah she has to psych herself up! Imagine if you had to check for something that could sting face first 😱
When she returns, it looks like me when I lost sight of a spider in my room.
What a sweet pea of a bird, tough gal. 🥰🖤 Love the Poké thumbnail too lol.
ive never been more angry in all my days than when that nasty rat of a wasp insisted on coming back to the nest. they really hate to see a girlie thriving.
Wasps. The only thing more useless and annoying in the animal kingdom is the stink bug.
@@sneakysquid1529 And don't forget those mosquitoes and cockroaches too
@@prismthehybird8023 while I do hate mosquitoes, I do love the bats here. So I don’t find them useless as long as they become a snack for my squeaky night flier buddies.
@@sneakysquid1529 Wasps are very useful animals. They pollinate and they also control populations of caterpillers and aphids. The ecosystem would be vastly altered if there were no wasps.
@@MrSizzlemedizzlesounds exactly like what a wasp would say.
After 10 minutes of watching and I kept thinking 'Gosh I Really wish I could hear the bird! And, how come they don't have a mic in the house?' Until I realize my volume is turned down 🧐Pretty cool, thanks for that!
Thanks for watching
This bird is legitimately behaving how I do when I hear a fly in my room 😭💀
I had wasps set up home in an unoccupied nesting box in my garden a couple of years ago. I let them go for a couple of weeks, as it was interesting to observe their comings and goings but their numbers stated increasing and they became aggressive, sending interceptors out if you came near, so a chemical warfare attack was called in. Wasps had to go.
Beautiful colors on the Blue Tit...
That was a very persistent queen wasp. The thing with wasps is that they're only aggressive/defensive near their nest not away from it. As you can see with this queen wasp it doesn't care about the bird or even attempt to sting it. I think the most scary wasps are the ones that build their nest in a burrow, those you have no idea where they are until you get too close to their nest. Terrifying.
Nah, wasps are aggressive everywhere they go. I know from experience.
A wasp landed in a nest of baby birds and stung them. Why? No f’n reason. Wasps are a$$h0les🐝
You are confusing wasps and hornets
@@saarbrooklynrider2277 I was thinking of them more broadly and yes that includes the hornets as well. All the ones that build their nests in trees, bushes, on the porch, attic and the nasty ones that build their nest in the ground. The ground ones are my least favorite as you won't know they're there until you step near their nest and they make themselves known.
Beautiful little creature
Spent years and years around birds and they are smart as whip and very interested in everything ......
Maybe the bird couldnt hear the wasp for the music!
Aye, apologies, Tim, but trying to get young'uns into bird watching more. That's why I have music and quirky edits.
@@talontales
No worries, I thought the music was live because you had a sped up section where the the music speed also increased. 😁
@@talontalesI'll leave you to the 'young' uns' then
😂😂😂
I had never thought that watching a bird chill and relax would be so cute! :3🧡
We have some blue tits nesting in our garden at the moment and they are absolutely one of our favourite little songbirds ever. Fantastic video by the way! 👍
The birds and the bees
I'd be angry if a giant bug was in my home, too.
She knew something was off when she entered the box haha
We had a couple of nesting boxes in the garden, every year it was lovely to see them come and raise their chicks in them. Especially as they popped their heads out waiting for mum to come back with their dinner
Dang that really is a pretty bird. I love that blue and yellow.
Feel like a Rookidee would be more fitting than a Piplup in the thumbnail 🙂
No joke! I'll remember that for next time
So ein feiner und mutiger Meisenkönig, einfach ein toller Vogel❤😊

[Wasp blows up]
@@brandonmunsen6035 BirB 🐦
I remember my window was broken so it wouldn't fully close. Wasps kept flying in. I kick them out. They keep coming back through the gap.
I feel this birds pain.
If it's still broken, try stuffing a towel soaked in peppermint oil into the gap--- the smell should deter them.
I spray my window trims from the outside regularly, and I no longer get nests in those areas.
Birds can be often deadly to smaller animals.
Gut gemacht wie ein spannender Film 🎉 mit den kleinen Animation! Wirklich sehenswert 🎉
The Way She Kept Gagging
That’s one protective momma bird
Poor wasp. It was just seeking shelter from the deadly rain. :)
In all seriousness tho; the blue tit is, for its size, a formidable bird. They can be quite aggressive against animals much larger than themselves. Squirrels better watch out!
The wasp was scouting for a new place to build a hive. Yikes!!!
@@bonjovirocks24 I'm gonna call "maybe" on that. 99.9999% of scouting wasps are either foraging or just trying to survive bad weather. It's the recently de-hibernated queen that builds a nest, and that's basically a one off event occurring in early spring. This looks like just another a forager to me, but I can definitely see why the tit would not want it hanging around. A single wasp sting could probably kill her.

I was thinking. Everyone is saying “brave bird”, but considering the size difference isn’t it the wasp that’s stuck in there with the bird, and not the other way around?
Amazing creaters from this wonderful planet/world. Everything is important.
The wasp in the beginning: yea I claim this nest its mine. I’ve decided u will NEVER notice.
bird: I hEaR yOu
wasp: well dang it
Incredible to see that they have lives with everyday problems. Although we're very different, we're yet so similar.
The wasp was probably sheltering from the rain on its way somewhere. Picked the wrong nest Buster! Buzz off! 🐝🐦
What beautiful birds!
Cool picture in picture 👍❤
Imagine being a wasp taking shelter from the rain and you just see a blackbird right in-front of you (X;'D) ".... F**k."
SR-71 Blackbird🗿
Great video!
The background music makes it hard to hear what is happening.
Thanks for the compliment! Yeah, I was trying to draw in a younger audience with the music but many don't seem to like it... 😅
👍s up for the blue tit ! I hate wasps , got tagged over 30 times last summer mowing my good neighbors front lawn. Bees are great cus I have a hive behind my bbq tool box & they increase my vegetable garden immensely. 74+ 🍁 hunter Yorkshire expat
Some birds can eat wasps, right?
Like me with a moth in the bedroom. Can't rest until it's gone.
The bird was pretty cute how do u build those houses so good
The music 😂
Imagine a flappy door--like a dog door--that the birds can easily push through but that keeps bugs out. I wonder if the birds could be trained to use it though. They probably wouldn't think to try I suppose. Unfortunate.
Now, if you get together with Mark Rober, you could design a camera detection system that figures out when it's a bird, or even a *specific* couple of birds, to keep out predators. But then, after the parent birds hatch eggs, it has to figure out what the babies look like, perhaps by learning by studying the camera inside the bird house, so that it can open and close for them too. Or it might even decide to stay shut for the babies if they are too young and would fall to their deaths. I suppose you would need high-quality cameras with zoom lenses and A.I. that watches the footage and zooms in and out and pans as necessary, etc, then classifies what it sees and keeps intruders out. There would need to be a perch a short distance from the door, where the birds could land to give the camera/A.I. time to study them in case it is slow at times, as well as another perch right before the door, in case the birds are too fast for the door to open and need a place to land if it doesn't do so in time. But hopefully, the door mechanism will be extremely quick, and the A.I. will be fast enough too. Dark conditions would make it more challenging and necessitate good-quality infrared cameras. But those are sharper in general anyway. However, they lack color and birds use a lot of color that might be useful for classification. Probably the best route would be to use a combination of camera types plus a human operator that trains the A.I. by hitting buttons when it sees live, or even recorded, footage of various creatures approaching the door. If you think, "Yes, I want to let in those particular birds" then hit the button for that, the system will learn from this. So you get remote control human override as part of the package.
I was just thinking about that
Damn. Smort
That wouldn’t be a good idea. I don’t know where they are and if it can get very hot there but the air flow in that nest would stop and it can lead to overheating and even suffocate the chicks. Birds need that air flow in their nests. It’s why you’ll see birds sometimes pull or mess around with the material in nest bowls. So when the chicks hatch, they can breath and not be so hot under mom. Even when they have hatched the mom will still continue fluffing up the bowl to keep the air open for them. It can also lead to increased concentration of ammonia and pathogens too.
@@kips8156 would it work better if instead of opening the door every time the bird came in, it could close the door every time there’s a different bird?
@@kips8156well, could have smaller ventilation holes.
How I react when I hear buzzing noises aka flying insects.
Its a western yellowjacket QUEEN which are cavity builders so it was probably gonna make a nest inside the bird box.
I'm not sure, but I checked that species just now and it says native to the Americas, while this video is shot in the UK. hmm
@@talontales they are invasive in many places too also its definetly a yellowjacket species and definetly a queen. Also it looks like a western doesnt it?
That wasp inconvenient af
What a beautiful bird
I feel her! ❤
An enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Are we going to talk about how @7:22 the wasp teleports, appearing out of thin air????? Either that, or wasps have some trick to nose dive at very high speed, such that the wasp was falling so fast it skipped frames, then pulled up and headed closer to the camera. WTF?
I think the wasp flew in from the right side of the balcony, if you look closely you can see it approaching from the farthest right side of the shot. 🧐Unless you're spotting I haven't seen! haha
I think you blinked
she is so brave.
Sounds like she was playing Wave race on the N64.
Classic game
Nothing like Breakfast in Bed!!
For me as non englishman, a phrase "Tits or GTFO" makes play another colors.
This must be an occupational hazard for nesting birds in hollows.
Argh! I feel very anxious and irritated on Miss Blue's behalf
Why cant she see it?
There's a piece of plastic with a hole in it that the camera sits behind, the wasp was behind the plastic, near the camera lens, and probably came out of the hole which is when she saw it.
That's why i hate wasps, they never leave you alone..
Even the animal kingdom has squatters
Yo thats a very cool bird, imma google them and go to images to see more of them
They look like real pokemon
Hubby's going to have to stay in the dog house when he gets home.

Hm seems to me that at this size scale wasps are kinda like venomous snakes ... but they can fly 😬
Yellow Jackets like to make their nests on bare wood like that. If you paint the inside of the nest, it will help deter the wasp.
