We had a small chance to see a Roller. I had photographed the Abyssinian roller as well as the Lilac-breasted roller, but never the European roller, a species that breeds in Sweden fairly regularly. There was an area of nesting boxes where they usually appeared, but they would be very shy, our guide William told us. We approached the area and saw two rollers sitting on a line. I fumbled nervously with my lens but finally got it ready - and the nearest roller stayed on. I managed to take a long series of images through the car window, and this is one of the results.
