This boltoni looks apatising
nice to see how these bee-eaters help to get an idea of the population of butterflies and dragonflies around Volterra.

Been around Volterra twice: I didn't notice any lakes over there, only the extremely dry bad lands.
(i love the slightly sobre colors in this photo. the yellow of the boltoni is nice and deep)
complimentissimo with this series
