Santa's Present - A couple of Blue Tail Bee Eaters

chngpe01 · 25th December 2003

Shot during Christmas Eve on my way to work. Decided get up early to catch some early birds before heading to work. I was presented with a couple of Blue-tail Bee Eaters, probably by Santa. Second pics was cropped slightly and some unsightly branches were cloned away.

Good shots there. Santa must have been really generous.

Super shots! Like the 1st better though both are just as good. Only a personal preference. Gives me the feeling that the 2nd bird (further away), turns to look at why you were taking a shot of the clearer imaged one. "What's so special about him? grrrrrr... Am just as good, why not photograph me?"
