Green Bee-eaters
The differences in these two sub-species is quite distinct. The upper bird ssp orientalis taken in India has an orange colouration to the head and far less vivid blue around the throat than the ssp cyanphrys captured in Israel.
Bird watcher since I can remember but birding since 1997. Earliest memories of watching nesting birds around Ickleford Common with my Grandfather during the 1960s.
