Day 3 in Hungary, 7th July.

European Bee-eater

Another amazing day of photography!

Out again at 03:10 hours and in a hide photographing a bee-eater colony as soon as the sun rose.

Short and sweet tonight as in a restaurant and the only place I can get wi-fi and we're running late.

The Red-backed Shrikes were amazing last evening in Puszta hide until a sparrowhawk flew in and demolished the perch we'd provided for them!
