Brown bird with Orange Beak

[Sylvia Ramos]

Hello Birders,

Tonji saw this bird in Alabang last week. It perched on a tree for a short while, then flew off again. It has an orange beak. We tried to look for the bird a few days later, so we could get a better shot, but no luck. I'm stumped, hope someone can id it, even with the fuzzy pic!
