No, the interaction between a honey guide bird and a honey badger is not considered commensalism. In this mutualistic relationship, the honey guide leads the honey badger to bee hives, where both species benefit: the honey badger gets access to honey, and the bird often feeds on the leftovers, such as wax and bee larvae. Commensalism, on the other hand, involves one species benefiting while the other is neither helped nor harmed.
