Merops viridis
Looks similar to the green bee green bee-eater (Merops orientalis) but its head to its mantle is chestnut brown.
Inhabits open country, borders or large rivers, cultivated land, parks and gardens and forest clearings and edges. Spotted in area of grassland near a body of brackish water with river running in.
Apologies for the poor picture it was very flighty and I could not get close enough for a good picture.
