A tale of two Bee-eaters
I have always been made to understand that the two Blue-tailed and Blue-throated Bee-eaters are usually not seen together, i.e. when one is around the other would have left. Well, this myth just blew up into smithereens when I watched the two birds within metres of one another.
The young Blue-throated Bee-eater seemed to dominate the scene as it sallied about and rested about the place. Perhaps the bliss of youthfulness!
The Blue-tailed Bee-eater was less active.
