Lilac Breasted Roller

Species: Lilac Breasted Roller | Location: Tarangire, Tanzania, United Republic of

On our Secluded Tanzania safari, this beautifully colored Lilac Breasted Roller was so calm and patient while I took photographs of him. This bird was my holy grail of the safari and to be able to capture images of him on our first day of safari made my trip.
