| Comment | The Rainbow Bee-eaters had just arrived early September and where pairing up for the new breeding season when I captured this photo. This particular bird flew straight for me at ground level and at great speed and love that I managed to capture the eye contact between the bird and myself. This group of Bee-eaters where planning their nesting site on an open grassed campground which highlights the challenges they face. | ||||||||||||||||||
