In the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, one can witness the beauty of both adult and juvenile Swallow-tailed bee-eaters. The adults are known for their remarkable feeding habits as they skillfully catch bees and other flying insects mid-air. They even go an extra mile by providing food to their young ones, showcasing their nurturing instincts. Etosha National Park also serves as a haven for these magnificent creatures. Here, groups of Swallow-tailed bee-eaters can be spotted perched on branches or swooping gracefully through the air. Their presence adds a burst of color to the already breathtaking African landscape. One cannot help but admire the resilience of these birds as they adapt to different environments within Africa. From Otjinene in Namibia to encompassing areas like Kalahari Gemsbok National Park in South Africa, they thrive amidst diverse habitats.
