Kerrie Bradley, Hervey Bay Rainbow Bee -eaters (ANIMAL & NATURE 2025)

Rainbow Bee - eaters are a brightly coloured bird with a yellow face, black mask with green and blue underparts. I have often found them perched on the bare branches of trees along the some of the beach fronts of Hervey Bay. I even manage to capture one eating a bee. They are definitely fun to photograph, even if they are quick to take off and land.
