Flexing bee-eater style

 When I saw the Blue-throated Bee-eater fluff, I knew I could be in for a long haul, and it turned out to be a good 15-min one.

And stretch and flex it did as I tried to take it all in, to a rhythmic left and right, and on and on, that guiltily I wished it would stop or I simply had to continue taking one too many similar shots!

And this too, in between....

... any flexing must include preening too, a surprising minimal done throughout.
