We saw this beautiful little bee-eater near Punda Maria in the north of Kruger. He features in our latest blog post (www.krugerexplorer.com/blog) that shares stories and images from our self-drive safari around Dimbo Hill and the S99 - such a superb Kruger road! There are two resident species of bee-eater in Kruger - the little and the white-fronted. Check out the profile screenshots from our KrugerExplorer App in the second image to learn a bit more about them! ๐Ÿ˜Š . ๐Ÿฆ ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ž๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ฒ๐—ฟ? ๐—–๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ธ ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐˜๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ž๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—˜๐˜…๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—”๐—ฝ๐—ฝ!

What a superb image by @leovantagedave of Leo Vantage Safaris! These beauties are little bee-eaters. They are stunning small birds, being just 16cm long and weighing as little as 15g. They look superb with their striking green and yellow plumage, black eye-mask and blue eyebrow. Bees are, unsurprisingly, a favoured prey and the little bee-eater is adept at removing the sting of a captured bee before swallowing it - thus avoiding a considerable indigestion problem! ๐Ÿ˜Š . ๐Ÿฆ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ž๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—˜๐˜…๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—”๐—ฝ๐—ฝ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐˜‚๐—น๐˜๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ด๐˜‚๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ž๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ก๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ธ.
