This is the stunningly brightly coloured Rainbow Bee Eater (Merops ornatus) taken next to a disused railway track on the outskirts of Port Douglas, Queensland, Australia. These beautiful birds are fascinating to watch. They have a favourite perch and will sit patiently until a insect flies into reach (they really do eat bees), then quick as a flash they dart out, loop round and land back on their perch.
Australia has more than its fair share of brightly coloured birds and this has to be up with the best of them
