Every morning I step outside is a chance to see something cool, like today! Good morning from this amazing multi-coloured pal.

🪿 European Bee-eater, ebird.org/species/eubeat1

Not just bees, caught this one snacking on a wasp. They sound really cool too! Wish I had recorded it. It's my first sighting of such a bird so I'm real excited ☺️

A vibrant multi-coloured bird, the European-bee eater, stood in a freshly cut field. The bird is a mix of green, aqua, bronze rust around the top and back of the head, strong yellow around the chin; a narrow black band along the eye connected to the sharp black beak
The same vibrantly multi-coloured European-bee eater, perched now on a metal wire fence in a field;
The same multi-coloured European Bee-eater, on the same fence now surrounded by house sparrows which seem a bit curious about this bigger birds presence among them.
