The Rainbow
Bee-eater is a truly gorgeous bird with very graceful flight. Often
seen sitting in the tops of dead trees in small colonies they dash
out with undulating flight to take insects. Simular to the Azure
Kingfisher they nest in chambers at the end of burrows 1.5 meters
long in sandy banks along water courses etc.
