European Bee-eaters on a Leafy Branch — Merops apiaster Postcard

Two European bee-eaters share a leafy branch, chestnut crowns fading into gold throats and turquoise-green bodies, their long central tail feathers trailing behind. One bird turns to watch the other, both caught mid-perch among broad green leaves. The plate follows Johann Friedrich Naumann's 19th-century ornithological studies, prized for scientific accuracy.
