The Eastern Wood-Peewee, like other flycatchers, perchs on the middle to upper branches of trees. When an insect flits by, the Peewee flies out and grabs it. I saw this Peewee grab this bee then rap him a couple of good licks on the tree bark before swallowing him. Capturing the photo of the bee just as he is being swallowed takes great skill and pinch of luck (well, lots of luck).
