About These Birds
Black Bee-eater
The Black Bee-eater is a vividly colored bird of West and Central African rainforests, distinguished by its deep black plumage relieved by a brilliant scarlet throat and turquoise-blue rump and tail. It inhabits the canopy and edges of lowland tropical forests from Sierra Leone east to Uganda. Like other bee-eaters, it sallies from exposed perches to capture bees, wasps, and other flying insects in midair.
