Merops bullockoides
The white-fronted bee-eater is a species of bee-eater widely distributed in sub-equatorial Africa. They have a distinctive white forehead, a square tail and a bright red patch on their throat. As the name suggests they eat bees but also a wide variety of other insects
Spotted on the banks of the South Luangwa River in Zambia. Often found in the river banks and gullies of wooded grassland and pastures of sub-equatorial Africa.
