Blue-tailed Bee-eaters Landing Shots

After seeing so many nice BIF shots of the BTBE.
I thought of giving them a shot and these are my results.

Many have mentioned the birds 'usually' fly into the wind.
But these fellas does not seem to be doing that.
They let the wind carry them into the perch & almost crash into it (gracefully).

That too is the reason you see only back shots in most of my attempts.
Wrong positioning on my part.

Thanks Ng

The 1s where there are many birds are actually a 2 or 3 shots composite.
So just 1 bird.
