Cheers mate

They are quick indeed and their colours really show when flying

I shot them near Sydney in Aus

Superb images! Bee-eaters are like rockets with wings. Great job nailing these in flight. I've found the Olympus 40-150mm to be a stellar performer as well. Can't wait for the recently announced Leica/Lumix 100-400mm zoom. With the Leica glass, the 400mm (800mm equivalent reach) and Lumix's DFD for predictive AF we will have another amazing birding lens.

By the way where did you shoot these beautiful birds. I just returned from a month in South Africa and saw a few but no great photo opportunities.

Thats for sharing these gorgeous images.

Very nice. Keep up the great work!
