We were really lucky to come across these “Little Bee Eaters” whilst on safari in Samburu National Park. They didn’t sit still for long, always moving then flying away, but when they did I was fortunate enough to get this shot.

(Samburu National Park – Kenya)

    To kimbaross,
    Thanks for the nice comment! I’m not a birder but I belive (and have just looked on google images) the the “rainbow bee eaters” is not the same as the “little bee eater”, but they do look quite alike!
    Thanks
