Beautiful Bird!!

Hi. One of my coworkers found a picture of a very beautiful bird on the internet, but there is no identification of the bird at all. How can I find out what type of bird it is?
It is a smaller bird with green/blue (teal?) base with yiellow above the beak and eys, orange cheeks under the eyes, a pink/purple chest with a hint of blue streaks, blue on the inside of the wing and a murky yellow on the outside of the wings on the top half only. It seems to have a bit of a plack tip on the bottom pointed part of the wings. It has a long tail (sort of like a parakeet) and a medium length beak with a downward curve on the top and is sharp pointed.
Can anyone help me? It is by far the most colourful bird I have seen (at least in my meager recollection!)
Thanks!

Now that my coworker is back from holiday - YES! It is: Images of Nature and then enter #2758 in the search field. That should bring up this bird.

Okay, having done that myself, it turns out that you can actually find the name of the bird that way!! It is the lilac-breasted Roller from East Africa. Turns out there are two different Images of Nature websites and I went to a different one than he did by accident. So, have a look at this bird - it is very beautiful!! You will have to click the link to go into the "Web Store" and then go to the search feature. Thanks all!
