Coral-billed Ground Cuckoo

Khao Yai National Park

This time of the year this wonderful creature often takes to feeding off food left overs from behind restaurants at Khao Yai National Park. It is extremely shy and one has to sit in a blind to enjoy prolonged views. This is a full frame shot. Hope you like it!

Congratulations to this great capture. You found a nice specimen with a good looking tail and a clean bill :) The one we picured behind the showers wasn't this photogenic.

Priceless shot, Peter. This one beats many of the shots taken with much more advanced equipment that I have come across!

Worth the wait.
