bee eater from Spain... (merops apiaster)

This photography was taken in Spain. Very near from Cceres. Here there is a colony of bee eaters. The photo was taken by means of digiscoping, connecting a nikon coolpix p5100 to a swarovsky ats80hd telescope, and using my own car as hide, in August 2008. I hope you will like of it.
Thank you for your attention and best wishes.

Great opening photo, Jos! Beautiful Bee-eater with moth. This pic has some great painting-like qualities which I like a lot. Quite a special digiscoped image. There is a competition going on for digiscoped birds. This would do fine there. Hasta pronto from me too! ;)
