Lilac-breasted Roller in Amboseli National Park

Lilac-breasted Roller in Amboseli National Park



After several safaris into the , we were yet to see anyAfrican Lion.

And our driver-guide wanted to make one last attempt to search for them on one of our game drives.

We started off on a good note with the sighting of yet another African , this time with a suckling calf.

 The mother and calf crossed the road in front of us making a lovely picture. As we moved further into the park, we saw a male sitting in the open and we made good the opportunity with a crisp picture of him.

Our next subject was the Common Fiscal that was perched beautifully on top of a shrub at near eye-level making the background blur into a near perfect bokeh.

As we moved forward, we noticed this Lilac-breasted Roller sitting on an open perch in perfect light and we clicked a picture when it looked at the camera.

But the side profile made for an even better composition, which we used as the feature image (first image) of this post.
