Fantastic photos, Loner -- especially the bee eater. This one too-- like a proud mother looking over here brood.

Cute Family. Their design is amazing. Went to a bird house yesterday and was again amazed by the colors some birds were dressed with and fashion still has some good inspiration to get from them.

Some excellent shots that I have missed out on. I just reviewed the last several days. I really like the kestrel and bee eater shots. Superb work as usual Sonja.
This shot is equally as good. I like the green reflections in the water. It offers a great background for the details in these birds. Take care and keep up the good work. I enjoy viewing your site.

Stunning pair of babies with interesting markings, the markings and depth of colors on the mother is beautiful.
We have Grebe's here but they are mostly gray with no distinct markings. Very nice.
