Description
He's a fast flier snapping insects from the air. I was lucky to follow him with my camera and snap this photo as he came to rest on the branch for just a second. This beautiful bird is the national bird of Africa. It replaced the Cory Bustard.

Thank you! This little guy was my first encounter. I saw him in Botswana flitting from tree to tree. He lit for just a second and I was lucky enough to have him in focus. Pretty birds-just about every color of the rainbow!
