A Green bee-eater also known as the Asian green bee-eater or little green bee-eater.

A Green bee-eater (Merops orientalis), also known as the Asian green bee-eater or little green bee-eater. This small, vibrantly colored bird is widespread across tropical Asia and the Indian subcontinent. Key Facts about the Green Bee-eater: Appearance: They have an overall bright green plumage, often with a rufous or reddish-brown wash on the crown and upper back, and a distinct black line running through the eye. Their long, slender, downcurved bill is black, and most have characteristic elongated central tail feathers, which are visible in the image. Habitat and Behavior: These birds are commonly found in open habitats like gardens, scrublands, and farmlands, where they typically perch on an open branch or wire to scan for prey. Diet: As their name suggests, they predominantly eat flying insects, including bees, wasps, and ants. Before consuming prey, they have a unique behavior of repeatedly hitting and rubbing the insect against their perch to remove the sting and break the exoskeleton.
