Attached are three birds found in southern Africa. The Lilac-breasted roller (which is my favorite), the white throated bee eater and the helmeted guineafowl. These pictures were taken in northern Kruger National Park except for the helmeted guineafowl which was taken in Chobe National Park in Botswana.
