Honey Snatcher

"Honey Snatcher" 
Judy Royal Glenn Photography 

 I originally saw this Chic-a-dee on a bee box.  I did not know what it was so I asked a curator at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia, but I did not ask any other questions. 

The Chic-a-dee went into the top right part of the box, so at first I thought I found it's nest.  There was also another Chic-a-dee there too, but they did not return.  So the only thing I could think of is that they were honey snatchers or bee eaters.

  1. I don't think I've ever seen a chic-a-bee before. What a cutie. He looks like he's wearing a little hat.

  2. I love to photograph the Chic-a-dee Sherry. It sounds like they are singing their name:)
