Over the top amazing, Vassilis.

Thank you Robert & Mike. It was really funny. The ''expression'' and body language of the one on the right makes the picture. Have a great weekend !

Magnificent colourful bird.

Wow that's a great shot and very strange behavior!

Thanks, Chris! I was definitely surprised to see him walking across the road. He was making his way to the stream on the other side. :-)

LOL what a hilarious scene! These Bee Eaters are such gorgeous birds!

My first thought when seeing this is that it almost looks like the bird on the right stayed in one spot, and the bird on the left is the same bird, but just hopped closer and you created a composite from 4 shots

I believe that there were 2 couples on the left and a single male on the right who wanted to join, but he was forced to leave :-)
