mutualism

Explanation:

In a mutualistic relation,both organisms involved benefit from the activities of each other. The benefits may be nourishment,shelter, protection etc.

In the above example,the birds are known to guide humans by responding to specific calls made by the human. They guide humans to beehives and then in return gets to feed on left over honey. Both the bird and human benefits by getting nourishment.
