The image is a close-up of a bird perched on a thin branch. The bird is a European bee-eater, also known as the European Merops apiaster. It has a long, pointed beak that is slightly open, as if it is about to take flight. The body of the bird is predominantly green, with a hint of orange and yellow on its head and neck. The wings are a mix of brown and green feathers, and the tail feathers are a lighter shade of green. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a cloudy sky.
