A family visit to Rimac late morning in Mediterranean weather - glorious! and even better when the characteristic call of bee-eater was heard!
A moment later I was looking down on three from one of the high dues. Calling regularly, and only pausing to circle a couple of times, they headed north - I lost sight of them before they got to the Haven. Sent a message to 6 'locals' that might have been in the area but guess no-one else picked them up.

Cheers

Kev

The only reports of Bee-eaters yesterday were 2 in Cornwall, your 3 at Rimac and the 3 at Flamborough in the evening. Thanks for the message yesterday.
