Peek A Boo (Anthracoceros coronatus)

For such a large bird, they are very good at hide and seek. You tend to hear them calling, but generally cant see them. And then you hear the woosh, woosh, woosh of the birds flying away. This was one of my lucky shots.

That is one impressive bill this beauty is carrying around. Hard to play peek-a-boo with that bill (lol). TFS Jaysan!
