Incoming Bee-Eater

When the gloriously beautiful Bee-Eater has the sun shining through its wings, magic happens. Here we have one in just such a scenario, with the added bonus of a bee it caught in the beak!

What do I like about this photo? The lighting, the colors, the pose. I used a fast shutter speed to freeze the action so everything is sharp.

What would I want to improve? Eye contact would have been nice, obviously :)
