Love this Bee-eater, and the light, and the perch - what's left? I love everything about this photo Carol.

Carol, the soft warm side light illuminates this bird beautifully. And the color is striking. Love it.

Amazing colors on this bird. We don't have Bee Eaters here so I never even see one were I live.. In Slovakia were I grew up we have European Bee Eaters, but I never paid attention to them, now I would :-).
