Photographed from inside the car. No beanbag. IS on.
For more info and in depth data about this species I refer to my travelogue where you can find more Merops bullockoides images.
Some general bee-eater info from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The bee-eaters are a group of near passerine birds in the family Meropidae. Most species are found in Africa but others occur in southern Europe, Madagascar, Australia and New Guinea. They are characterised by richly coloured plumage, slender bodies and usually elongated central tail feathers. All are colorful and have long downturned bills and pointed wings, which give them a swallow-like appearance when seen from afar.
Have a great weekend! |
