    Lilac-breasted Roller

    This is a Lilac-breasted Roller, perhaps the most photographed bird in Africa. We never grew tired of seeing these birds.

    Beautiful bird and lovely image Chuck But I must say that your watermark with shadows distracts and the shadows under the letters make me think that the image is soft although it is not.

    Thanks for the comments. Binnur, I think you are right on. The watermark is distracting. Thanks for pointing it out.

    Oh this time I do not mind the watermark. I guess I am used to seeing them in all your submitted shots...I googled this one as I had never seen one before and it is very beautiful...and colourful....Nicely caught...
