[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Again a bee-eater and now with food that is different from its regular diet, the bees, when the bee-eaters are hungry they are not very choosy, they eat another kinds of insects.
In this picture you can see how the bee-eater is preparing the insect for swallowing it, he is bouncing the insect.

Full description you can find in my former post European Bee-eater.
