There are several different Kingfishers to be found in my country, approx. 10. This one though is the Brown-Hooded Kingfisher.
The Pied Kingfisher…………………..
The Lilac-breasted Roller, a bird of beautiful colours. They are normally quite happy to let you photograph them, as this one was.
The Bee-eaters of Southern Africa number approx. 10 different species. Two types below, the Little Bee-eater and the White Fronted Bee-eater.
Just beautiful!

Thank you for the comment, we tend to forget the beauty of Gods creations.
Ah yes, these kingfishers… We have them too in m country. We call them “Yalıçapkını” how can I translate I don’t know, but it means, “yalı” water side residence and “çapkın” means casanova… 🙂 It is funny but they named like that… Dear Rob, I loved them all, what a beautiful colours, great photographs. Thank you, with my love, nia
