Lilac Breasted Roller on Buffalo Skull
Whilst looking for lions in the South of South Luangwa National park, we came across this buffalo skull. Suddenly, a lilac breasted roller landed on it. I just had the time to take the camera, take two pictures and it flew away. The lilac breasted roller is one of the most colourful birds in Sub-Saharan Africa and is very common, even in urban area. I just liked the fact that it landed on the skull.
