Young blue-tailed beeeater (Merops philippinus)

This youngster was sitting low in a small (5') bush with an adult at the top. I believe it is a juvenile because of the colours and lack of the long tail feather.

He doesn't have the colouring of an adult either, does he.

That's a marvellous picture you've taken of this pretty bee-eater Steve - very well done.
