Merops leschenaulti
spotted a group of them in thickets with a water body at the center. Perches on the branches and swoops down on insects hovering over the water surface. Catches the insects and smashes them on branches to make tacking sounds with their beaks hitting the wood. :) strangely bayan weaver birds were not happy with them being around their nests.

yes alin, most of the bee-eaters are really colorful and photogenic animals. :)
Adorable. A mix of beautiful greens and brown-ish colors!
