Rainbow Bee-eater

[Nevil Lazarus]

These birds nest each Summer in the soft loamy ground on a sports field at a public camping ground 100km north of Sydney. This is from 3 years ago.

Great capture Nevil! Awesome detail and sharpness on both bird and fly. Lovely true colours too. BH !

Doesn't look like a bee, I guess the bird is not too picky. :) Sharpness and eye contact look good. I would give it a bit more room left and bottom and find the pink signature a bit distracting.

Sharp as , Nevil !! Feather detail spot on.

What a wonderful bird. Very sharp and I like the "bee" in the beak!

[Wil Hershberger]

WOW, what a terrific shot of a gorgeous bird. The sharpness throughout is very nice. The comp is pleasing and I really enjoy this image. Too bad for the robber fly :)

Nice one Nevil, particularly like the robber fly.
