Back on Topic.
Second lower image is great.  Love the pale green background.

Yes I grant you it is easier with a larger bird but even raptors are quite difficult as they fly, glide, hover and dive.  The hover is the time to get them!
The bee eaters are very fast moving and probably about the size of a small jackdaw or large blackbird. My success rate is not super high less than 30% and that was two years ago.  
I will try and see if I can get some Cornish Choughs or kingfishers to photograph once my DIY jobs are complete.
