I took this image of bee-eaters in Hungary this June.
The bee-eater to the right was sitting alone on a branch cleaning its feathers. Suddenly, the other bee-eater came flying and grabbed and twisted its head very violently.
It happened in a split of a second and I only managed to get the shot as I had already focused on the sitting bird and was about to take a picture.
Canon EOS 1DX Mark II with the 500mm f/4L IS II
1/2500 sec at f/4.0 and ISO 2000
Please let me have your comments to the image. Also, does anybody know if this is a "normal" behavior?
Regards Steen
