Armed with an amazing bill, this skulker gave us a good minute to shoot his portrait at close range and in relatively open surroundings... not a regular occurrence. Shot in West Bengal at high altitude two weeks ago.
Thanks for viewing, ugolino

Great find, Ugolino. The detail and color of the bird are very nice. Love the long curved bill.
