Hi all,
Just a few ID questions re: birds around km9 at Kaeng Krachan NP, Thailand.
The first pic of the raptor in the tree in the early morning I initially thought was probably a Crested Serpent-eagle based on both body size and its large head, and the second pic, which is both heavily cropped and lightened seems to show a tail band and lightish (yellow?) cere.
Pics 3 an 4 show a green pigeon seen alone near to a flock of Thick-billed Green Pigeons. This bird was never amongst the Thick-billed flock, being about 100m away, and flew away in the opposite direction when approached. It appears to have red feet and darker primaries.
All help is welcome,
Cheers,
Ben.
