If you go to the link above, there is a picture of a brown bird with light blue feathers on the neck and underbelly. Does anyone know the name of this bird?

 

Thanks

I believe this is a Lilac-breasted Roller from Africa....It is possible that the photo you have from the calendar is Photo Shopped.
