Rainbow bee-eaters are known for their unique foraging behavior, in which they catch and eat insects in the air. They are also known for their nesting habits, where they dig long tunnels in the ground to create their nests. These tunnels can be up to a meter long and can take weeks to excavate. The rainbow bee-eater is also a migratory bird that travels long distances each year to breed and feed. During the breeding season, males put on elaborate courtship displays showing off their colorful plumage and engaging in aerial acrobatics to attract mates. All of these behaviors make the rainbow bee-eater a fascinating species to observe and study.
