I was fishing after work one day this week and fortunatly I had my camera, this is a colony of Carmine Bee Eaters, they were being hunted by a hawk, on the banks of the Zambezi, very spectacular.
Like all of the photos on this blog, click them to enlarge.

The Bee Eaters nesting, they dig into the sand, down to nearly a metre.
You can see a couple of them having a teritorial battle mid air in the centre of the shot.


Their 'bogeyman'


  The panic when the bogeyman comes

Finding a resting spot waiting for the predator to get lost.
