Blue-tailed bee-eaters

Bee-eaters, the name tell everything, they catch stinging insects like bees, wasps, hornets, ants etc. But Bee-Eaters also catch and eat other harmless insects especially dragonflies, and also grasshoppers, butterflies. There are plenty of dragonflies and grasshoppers here at Sengkang river, where I saw a few of beautiful bee-eaters here.
