bee eaters

Been house bound today . one month ago I put a line down to my neighbours flat . every day the bee eaters come on the line and catch whatever they can to eat, they have got used to me now and I can take photos of them without hiding behind anything draped over my balcony but the camera click did worry them a bit so I would get a couple of shots and they would be gone, today however they stayed all morning untill the sun cast a shadow of the building on the line. I am supposed to be packing my stuff ready for moving. watching the birds was a nicer proposition so not much packing has been done today. no worries there is always another day.

Just wondering if you are going to take any photos of me!!    he was too close to get a shot with the lens I had on so this shot of the male sparrow was taken with my htc mobile camera.

What fantastic shots again Tony. Love the one with the insect in its mouth.

I thought you were finished moving. You are going to miss that line for the bee-eaters, hope you can set up another one there.
