This bird may look black from afar but it's not. It has a rich glossy greenish-blue colour, brownish head and thick wide orangey-red bill.
The Dollarbird likes flying insects and after doing sorties will return expectedly to the same or surrounding perch. It also favours high perch on exposed bare branches of the tallest trees.
The following image was shot about the same time last year. It could be the same bird - stunning colour too!
