A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Lamprotornis chalybaeus
This was taken at the Satara rest camp in the Kruger Park.
Occurs in a band from Senegal to Ethiopia, south through Kenya, Tanzania and Zambia to southern Africa. Here it is locally common in Zimbabwe, Mozambique and north-eastern South Africa, extending into northern Botswana and Namibia. It generally prefers open savanna woodland with dense undergrowth, such as Mopane (Colosphermum mopane) and Acacia.
