Rainbow Bee-Eater

Returned today to the spot where the Rainbow Bee-Eaters nest near mangroves at Paradise Point on the Gold Coast. These really are a wonderful bird.

First shot is a cracker. I love their arobatics when they are chasing insects.

Thanks all. Your are right Devster about the aerobatics. That's the aim of my next visit to this site. It will be a challenge and hopefully I capture something good enough to put it up here!  Cheers.

I just spotted what were officially the first 3 Rainbow Beeeaters for the Canberra Region south of Yass 3 days ago. The best view I have had of them ever

I'll try, it is just that I am too busy taking more photos whenever I find spare time. Some rainy days on the way though, I think, so perhaps I will manage to find some time
