Big thank you, Mark!

Prof Tirso, thank you for your kind comment, it inspires me to do better!

Thanks Des! I'll make the necessary correction. I thought it was a juvenile since it was smaller than the male and female hornbill captures I had that day.

Big thanks, Neon! Hope to shoot with you soon. That North Sea photo you posted on fb was awesome!

Thank you Ate/Idol Tina!

Birding? When? Game game!!! ;D
