the Honey Buzzard, one of the lesser known birds of prey, with one of the coolest diets. This avian creature preys almost exclusively on wasps, larva, and the nesting itself. It will also take small rodent prey when necessary. You're probably wondering, how doesn't it get stung? Well, the buzzard has a natural defense for this, of course. The small 'scale feathers' on their face has deep barbules with a curved, armor-like appearance, which may help prevent stings from reaching the skin.
