Thanks for a Superior photo of this species, MIKAEL,
waiting - with Fine colours - in a shaft of sunlight.

Spontaneously one may ask:
Which FAMILY could this long-legged bird, walking &
RUNNING(!) on a shady Asian forest floor, belong to??
Length 27 inches - incl. 14" tail.
Well, it's a Cuckoo (Carpococcyx).
Quite amazing, sharing e.g. Big size, long legs and
tail(!) + blue eye patch + RUNNING with another very
large member of Cuculidae - in a DRY environment
in another part of the World:
The Mexican Greater Roadrunner (Geococcyx)!
Length 23" (Amr.inches).
Kd rgds .......... C.
