Hello. Please help ID my bird photo from Samar. Taken about 11 am last 09/07/12 while I was trying to take a photo of a Coucal hiding on a shrub at the foot of a hill. Suddenly, about a dozen of these flew from their hiding places and perched on a branch of the tree where I was hiding. I had difficulty finding the birds since they hid and moved very slowly on the cover of the leaves. Fortunately I spotted one and took a photo. I thought this is the famous Colasisi but the features are different from those found in the books and in the net. Nikon D300s, Sigma 150-500mm @500, Handheld, ISO200, F8, 1/200sec Thank you in advance.

I think it's a Guaiabero Doc. :-)

to be more precise, it is a female guaiabero as evidenced by the yellow and dark brown 'necklace'. the male would have some blue in the face.
