Bluecheeked Bee-eater (Merops persicus) is a Palearctic migrant breed in Eurasia/South Asia and North Africa. This little cute bird spends the nonbreeding season in the tropics and sub- tropics of sub-Saharan Africa. The subspecies (M. p. chrysocercus) breeds on the fringes of the Western Sahara and migrates to West Africa, whereas persicus breeds from the Nile Delta to the Caspian Sea in Kazakhstan.
The nominate race spends the non-breeding season in savanna habitats from southern Sudan and Ethiopia to sub-near Cape Town for a period of three months. Vagrants of this highly mobile species may occur anywhere in the African region. The blue-cheeked bee-eater is a brightly colored bird found in open habitats in Africa/Asia and Arabia. They are about 15 cm long and have a long tail. Blue-cheeked bee-eaters are known for their aerial antics. They often fly high above tree tops in search of insects. When they spot a meal, they dive down at lightning speed to snatch it up. #beeeaters #birds #birdsvideos #birdwatching
