As a lot of you already know, Bee-Eaters are a favorite of mine. I like them because of their wonderful colors but most specially because they are such fast fliers that I am always challenged to take photos of them in flight. Here are a couple of recent captures in Subic. I really have to go and take pictures of the blue tailed ones soon. Blue-Throated Bee-Eater1DMk II + EF 400mm f/5.6 ; f/6.3 ; ISO 500 ; handheld   And what would a trip to Subic be without the regular ... White-Breasted Wood Swallows1DMk II + EF 500mm f/4 ; f/4.5 ; ISO 500 ; handheld but with the help of the upper side of the window :-)  |

Nice captures, Tina. The bee-eaters are great in-flight! Oh, and the Swallows are perfect! :-)

Beautiful shots of the BTBE & WBWS. I missed the shutter speed though. Well done Tina & Mabuhay.

Wow Tina. These bee eaters are fantastic. Superb focus on the eye of the first picture.
The wing spread on the WBWS shows details I have not seen before. Very informative, I can count all the feathers even the tiny ones.
Time to go to Bohol!

Wonderful set Idol Tins, the second BIF capture is real killer with that very nice full wing spread. |

Sigh! (Inggit) My idol is in a shooting mood again. The swooning pose of the BE is clap-clap-clap and the WBWS clap-clap-clap-clap! Sigh ulit (admiration).  telyds |
