Do bee-eaters ever get stung?

A bee-eater is seen flying over the Gediz delta of Izmer in Turkey.   The delta river flows into the eastern Aegean Sea.   There are 27 species of bee-eaters, mostly found in Asia and Africa.   Bee-eaters catch bees in the air and then repeatedly bash the bee on a hard surface until it is dead.
