The cinnamon roller (Eurystomus glaucurus), also known as the broad-billed roller, is a member of the roller family of birds which breeds across tropical Africa and Madagascar in all but the driest regions. It is a wet season breeder, which migrates from the northern and southern areas of its range towards the moister equatorial belt in the dry season. Cinnamon roller is striking in its strong direct flight, with the brilliant blues of the wings and tail contrasting with the brown back. Order: Coraciiformes, Family: Coraciidae, Genus: Eurystomus, Species: Eurystomus glaucurus (Statius Muller, 1776)
