EDITORS COMMENTS
African Roller Bird, 1808 Description: This print showcases the African Roller (Coracias garrulus), a striking and iconic bird species native to the African continent. The African Roller is a member of the roller family, order Coraciiformes, and is known for its distinctive plumage and unique behavior. The African Roller is characterized by its glossy, iridescent blue-green and purple feathers, which shimmer in the sunlight. Its body is slender and streamlined, with a length of around 33-38 centimeters and a wingspan of approximately 50-55 centimeters. The bird's beak is short and curved, and its legs are short and stout. The African Roller is a social and gregarious bird, often seen in pairs or small groups. It is a ground-dwelling bird that feeds primarily on insects, reptiles, and amphibians, which it locates by sight or by probing the ground with its beak. The bird is also known for its acrobatic flight, during which it can fly up to 60 kilometers per hour and hover in mid-air to catch prey. The African Roller is a resident breeder in sub-Saharan Africa, with a wide distribution ranging from Senegal in the west to Ethiopia in the east, and south to South Africa. It is a common sight in open savannas, grasslands, and woodlands, and is often seen perching on trees or telegraph poles, where it can be easily spotted due to its vibrant plumage. This beautiful print, dating back to 1808, captures the essence of the African Roller's beauty and grace, making it a treasured addition to any collection of natural history prints or African wildlife art.
