Nubian Bee-eater (Merops nubicus)
The northern carmine bee-eater (Merops nubicus) is an African near passerine bird in the bee-eater family, Meropidae. Alternative common names include the carmine bee-eater or the Nubian bee-eater. It is closely to the southern carmine bee-eater where the throat is carmine (instead of blue).
