Limited Edition Framed Artwork By Ken Hoehn

"Rollers are members of the Bee Eater family, and they over one of the most celebrated plumage color pallets in nature. This remarkable photograph is intended to show them in their work.

The birds have discovered a bee's nest situated in the mud near a water hole in the wilds of Botswana, in southern Africa. In the moment they have agitated the nest a bit, so that the bees have exited the hive to defend their home.
The Rollers can simply pick them out of the air at this point, and they do so with deadly success.

I can remember laying on the ground and moving my body slowly forward, being careful not to disrupt the activity. Of course, the picture was the prize I was after, but it came with a bee sting inside my ear in the process. For weeks after, the pain reminded me of this special and beautiful moment."
