'insects' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'high eye bones? weird' is the wordplay.
'high' becomes 'h' (this might be a standard abbreviation which I don't know about).
'weird' indicates anagramming the letters.
'eye'+'bones'='eyebones'
'eyebones' anagrammed gives 'oneybees'.
'h'+'oneybees'='HONEY-BEES'

'with' acts as a link.
