EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant Rainbow Bee-eater in all its glory, as it proudly displays its bee dinner. The Rainbow Bee-eater, known scientifically as Merops ornatus, is a unique species found exclusively in Australia and holds the distinction of being monotypic within the Meropidae family. In this stunning image captured by Lea Scaddan for Australian Views, we are treated to a visual feast of colors and natural beauty. The bird's iridescent plumage shimmers under the sunlight, revealing an array of mesmerizing hues that seem almost surreal against the backdrop of lush green foliage. Perched delicately on a branch with its prize catch held firmly in its beak, the Rainbow Bee-eater exudes elegance and grace. Its slender body and long tail feathers create an exquisite silhouette against the clear blue sky. The photographer has masterfully frozen this fleeting moment in time, allowing us to appreciate not only the bird's striking appearance but also its remarkable hunting prowess. With incredible precision and agility, these avian acrobats snatch bees out of mid-air before returning to their perches to enjoy their meal. Lea Scaddan's expertly composed photograph serves as a reminder of Australia's rich biodiversity and highlights one of nature's most enchanting creatures - the Rainbow Bee-eater. This image is sure to captivate anyone who appreciates wildlife photography or simply seeks inspiration from Mother Nature herself.
