A blue-tailed bee-eater
Just sharing a shot of a bee-eater taken in Ulu Dedap paddy-fields. Our paddy fields can be a treasure mine for birds, and the green paddyfields made such a great background for photography. Initially, I had fear driving my car unto the bunds around the fields, but with Norman by my side, my fears can be set aside. After all, if I get my car into a ditch or whatever, I have someone to shout HELP to.....ha ha.
This bee-eater was flying against the wind, and the wind was so strong that the bird seemed to be hanging there in mid-air not moving...Without the wind to stop its flight, I would never be able to shoot this bird in flight!
Although I am not working at the moment, other commitments at home stopped me from doing much bird photography. Hopefully, more opportunities will come in the near future, so that I can practise more and improve........
