Malkoha in South Thailand (1 Viewer)

Hi, is it possible from these photos to tell if this is a green billed or black bellied malkoha? It seems to have a little white around the red eye patch. Are there other indicators that I am missing? The bird was about 20 feet off the ground about half way up the tree. It later glided downwards into a thick bush.
The photo was taken on the outskirts of Hat Yai in southern thailand.
thank you in advance
steve
