Newsflare : A bizarre video has emerged of a bumblebee appearing to rescue another bumblebee caught in a spider’s web.

Keith Adams, who provides a running commentary throughout the video, caught the action on the windowsill of his flat in east London on Sunday.

Keith describes how he saw a bee caught up in a spider’s web and wanted to film the scene as a lesson for his young son.

However, things took an unexpected turn when a second bumblebee showed up and appeared to sting the spider to deter it from its meal. http://www.newsflare.com/video/16516/weather-nature/bumblebee-appears-to-rescue-another-bee-from-a-spiders-webDoris Day
