Thank you very much Bob, Rey, Edu, Edwin, Tina, and Ariel!! I really appreciate your appreciation! I'm really happy with these photos, and I'm now thinking that I should try shooting from the window of a blind next!

Superb shots Sylvia! Love the way the bee-eater sits on top grain stalk.. it seems like its part of its tail! Great work as always!

Thank you Bobby and Butch! When I processed the pictures, I was actually more excited about the picture of the Scaly Breasted Munia, mainly because my other captures of this species were very poor. But, now that some time has passed I look at both pictures again, I agree with the comments that the Bee Eater is the "nicer" picture. The background makes a big difference!

I like the first photo the most. I like how you were able to use the light to emphasize the eye of the bird.
