The bird you have pictured here is called a Barbot and information on this species cna be found at this website...> http://www.honoluluzoo.org/Red_and_yellow_barbet.htm

There is more but I found this site to be informative

Very nice capture. DOF is perfect and the colours on the bird fascinating.

Hi Liezel, this is a very decorative bird with his striped pyjamas on! You have captured him well on the busy branches. He is a little soft but you show him well. TFS

Hi Liezel,
You captured a very colorful bird. You did a great composition with good DOF and very nice details. This bird is a red-and-yellow barbet. They are commonly seen duetting from termite mounds. TFS!
