Lamprotornis nitens
The Red-shouldered Glossy-starling or Cape Glossy Starling (Lamprotornis nitens) is a species of starling in the Sturnidae family.
It is found in Angola, Botswana, Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Lesotho, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
It appears to have another Ring Necked Dove at the right corner of the picture?
Hi i have added another picture. These were taken from a car while driving in The Kruger National Park
I think it's a Purple Starling or Purple Glossy Starling (Lamprotornis purpureus), but I can't see it clearly.

Hi Shri,
I have noticed that many of your spottings are unnamed whereas suggestions have been given for them. Request you to update each spotting with correct names. Also, please give some details, description etc, for each spottings. It would make them more interesting.
