Black Hornbill (female) (Anthracoceros malayanus)

At first I though It was just another Oriental Pied Hornbill, so was about to give it a miss. However my wife took a closer look at it and said loudly it is but a rare Black Hornbill, so that got me rushing into the bush to get a closer look and shot of the fellow.... So I guess it is good to have a sharp eyed woman around when birding .... Thanks ...
