Incredible action shot of bird and bee. I also like the shadow of the bird's leg against its body.
 
Super catch by the pair of you.

NB I have changed the scientific name for this one as the viridis is the Timor Figbird.
 
Cracking aerial image, welcome to Birdforum.Net, look forward to seeing ore from you, and good luck in the comp.
 
Fantastic action shot! Welcome to BF. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the comp!
