Eurasian Hoopoe - crest up

Doi Inthanon Highland Resort

Awesome - exotic bird that opens up his cool
crest everytime he finds a worm in the ground!

With a Kenko 2X Teleconverter on.

I wondered if the Hoopoe would be on one of your slideshows.

I've been fascinated by the idea of this bird ever since I read the book The Source
by James Michener. It is fiction about an archeological dig in Israel. The Hoopoe
is a bird there but it is also the nickname of one of the long ago human residents of the area of the dig who shared habits and characteristics of the hoopoe.

I hope someday to see one in real life.
