Birds colorful

In 2015, Noah Strycker is attempting to become the first person to see 5,000 species of birds—about half of the avian species on Earth—in one calendar year! Noah is now nearing the halfway point of 365 straight days of birding around the globe, with an itinerary covering 34 countries and all seven continents, on one continuous, all-out, global birding trip.

The lilac-breasted roller (Coracias caudatus) is an African member of the roller (or Coraciidae) family of birds. It is widely distributed in sub-Saharan Africa, and is a vagrant to the southern Arabian Peninsula. It prefers open woodland and savanna, and it is for the most part absent from treeless places. #AmazingBirds #WeirdBirds #BeautifulBirds #ColorfulBirds #BirdNests #BabyBirds

Last night, I was on my computer scanning for ideas to write, and my husband called me - "Come and watch these brilliant colors". I immediately wrapped up and rushed towards my television.
