Green Bee-eater
Closeup shot of green bee-eater, took this photo near Barglur reserved forest, Bangalore. Was resting under a tree and luckily this beautiful bird landed on a branch of the same tree. Took this shot at a distance of 12-15 feet. Lucky to get closer shot and amazed by the colors of this bird.

The Asian green bee-eater is a near passerine bird in the bee-eater family. It is resident but prone to seasonal movements and is found widely distributed across Asia from coastal southern Iran east through the Indian subcontinent to Vietnam. Populations in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula that were formerly assigned to this species are now considered distinct species.
