Two beauties Eric. I see a bit of a blueish cast on the roller shot, but then it may just be these old eyes.

You said you couldn't get decent BIFs except for the occasional lucky shot of a giant bird. Liar, liar- pants on fire

. That's an excellent image of the lilac breasted roller!
And the bird itself is a real beauty.

Both are excellent captures, Eric, but I'm partial to the first one

All comments are much appreciated...I really could have used Tim's 800 or Conrad's 600 and tc....but after years of trying, finally getting a decent roller in flight was pretty cool. Their colors in flight are almost unreal.

Great catch on the lilac breasted roller -- that definitely is not a big bird, and not easy to nail like that. Cool!
