Lilac-breasted Roller

Definitely THE iconic bird of the Kruger National Park. It has an acronym of ABR which stands for Another Bloody Roller. Unbelievable for such a beauty.

It is tricky though because it perches conspicuously on any available bush and depending on the light it looks like a number of different birds. I was never disappointed when it was an ABR.
