White-browed Coucal
When I saw the White-browed Coucal on the ground, trying to find shelter in the thicket, I was surprised by the unusual movements the bird was doing. It was moving more as a mammalian, rat or mongoose, than as a bird. But when I photographed the bird perched I could see what a beautiful bird it is.

Oooh!!! What a wonderful bird and I just love the way he's just positioned himself poking out from behind the leaves.

A super picture Cristian - many thanks for sharing this one, there's not too many pictures of this species in the Gallery.
