Swallow-tailed bee-eater with its insect prey
Swallow-tailed bee-eater (Merops hirundineus) perched on a branch with an insect in its beak. This bird is named because of its preference for eating wasps, bees and hornets. When it catches one of these insects, it beats it repeatedly against a hard surface until the sting is no longer working. Even when it catches non-venomous prey it will perform this behaviour, before swallowing the insect head first. Photographed in the Kalahari regions of South Africa and Botswana.
