I was on a short trip to Kruger recently with Mark Dumbleton.
This was a very interesting sighting. There was a lot of commotion with bee-eaters, drongos and eagles flying around to and fro, the smaller birds chasing bugs and the eagles interested in something on the ground.
I quite liked this shot with the drongo still sitting on the branch and the bee-eater taking off.
All comments welcome.

Neat to have different species in the frame. It's amazing that there is still motion blur at this shutter speed. I would lighten the BG a bit and also wish the head angle of the drongo were better.
