Coracias abyssinicus
The Abyssinian Roller is a large bird, nearly the size of a Jackdaw at 28–30 cm. It has a warm brown back, with the rest of the plumage mainly blue. Adults have long (12 cm) tail streamers. Sexes are similar, but the juvenile is a drabber version of the adult.

Glad you like it, thanks Claudia !
Beautiful. Love the poverty of the tree against the rich colors of the bird.
