There is a moment in each dawn in which the light is as if suspended; a magical moment where anything can happen. Creation holds its breath
Il y a un moment à chaque aube où la lumière est comme suspendue ; un moment magique où tout peut arriver. La création retient son souffle.
(Douglas Adams).

Wikipedia: The green bee-eater (Merops orientalis), also known as little 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 sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal and the Gambia to Ethiopia, the Nile valley, western Arabia and Asia through India to Vietnam. They are mainly insect eaters and they are found in grassland, thin scrub and forest often quite far from water. Several regional plumage variations are known and several subspecies have been named.
