Rainbow bee-eater – our Pic of the Week!
Leigh Rolfe @accidental.photography captured this stunning shot at Suffolk Park NSW.
“I snapped this rainbow bee-eater as it was swooping down to catch a bee ????”
Rainbow Bee-eaters are always a favourite with photographers – but we haven’t seen a shot quite like this!
Australia’s only bee-eater, these wonderful birds are well named, and expertly remove the stings of bees and wasps before eating them.
Thanks for tagging us at #birdlifeoz, Leigh! ❤️
And as always – please consider making a donation so we can continue stopping bird extinctions in Australia – via the link in our bio.
