    We have the SX40 and consider upgrading to this one, do you think it is worth it? Looking at your photos it seems so :) Posted 11 years ago

The Indian Roller

The Indian Roller, also called the Blue Jay in former times is a member of the roller family of birds. They are found mainly in the Indian Subcontinent, but also in a wider arc stretching from Iraq to Thailand and are best known for the aerobatic displays of the male during the breeding season.
