    Nice bird, i'm partial to bee-eaters myself :)

    I wish the bird wasn't competing with the cliff face and shadows so much as a lot of it's impact colour-wise is a bit lost.
    Maybe a different angle if possible might be in order next time out.

    Nice bird and colors with the open bill but the bird is too dark as a result in part of the terribly harsh light. You need to go back earlier or on a cloudy day and get closer :)
