High up in the maple tree, the little bird delights in its beautiful blossoms. Intrigued by a mysterious humming sound, he sets off on a journey to an enchanting world of flowers. Needless to say, the fiery-red fox is not far off and he tries to catch the little bird. But the unlucky bird then befriends the busy bees, and a rather unpleasant surprise awaits the troublemaker at the beehive…
