What a wonderful find for you Godwin... this is the first picture to come into the Gallery for this species.

I've now uploaded this lovely picture to The Opus article. Many thanks for sharing it with us.
 
A great shot, but it is not the Chestnut-breasted Partridge (Arborophila mandellii), although it has a chestnut breast, it's a male Bornean Partridge (Arborophila hyperythra). Really the best picture I've ever saw of this rare species. Thanks, Rudi
