Description
I had identified this pretty bird as a Yellow Fronted Canary, but a fellow FAA photographer tipped me off that it's most likely a Little Bee-eater. Both are small birds living in the trees in the Maasai Mara in Kenya, but I think the reddish throat is the tipoff that it is, indeed, a Bee-eater. It was hard to see in the trees, but very pretty. Thanks to my FAA friend; birds are not my forte, and there are many that look similar, even using a bird book specific to the Maasai Mara.
