Nice image of the roller Sucheth. I spotted rollers in africa and the colors are a bit different. The blues are present but they also have a long tail similar to the racket tailed drongo. Thanks for sharing.

Nice image. I like the composition. The eye contact is nice.

Murugan,
You may have seen the European rollers in Africa. We also see them here in India during their migration.

Cheers,
