A lone Rainbow Bee-eater on migration from Australia ! – Chinese Gardens.

Much excitement by twitchers here, standing by their tripods and carefully adjusting long lenses. I was told that only six or seven Rainbow Bee-eaters arrive every year at the Gardens.

Unfortunately, having left our tripod behind this is the best of several bad shots.
