At Chinguni Hills In Liwonde National Park, Jo, Parry and I took a walk on foot with a guide early one morning. These brilliantly coloured little birds (Merops boehmi) were one of the highlights for me.

Wow, what aa amazing photo...and what a beautiful bird! Wonderful!
Beautiful photograph, and my first thought was, 'What an amazingly efficient design'. He/she? looks as sleek and fit for purpose as the beautiful old supersonic Concord.
What a contrast with your previous photo.
That bird is all business.
Thanks Aputsiaq :^)
RR, very different indeed from the tailor bird — both supremely adapted for their ways of life.
Zhoen, I wouldn't like to be a bee near this bird.
