The majestic hornbill high up the conifer. Today the pair was a bit cautious of of us and stays a bit higher in the canopy. My Fuji XF100-400mm had a hard time getting a full frame shot at the distance of 100m out. However my XT-2 24 mp sensor still manage some good details of the bird even after cropping to 3.5mp.
Surprise ........ this is actually my first time seeing a pair of mating birds in the natural habitat. The last I shoot this bird was in the infamous tiger sanctuary in Bangkok which is now defunct that was a few years back.
Met my good friend Danny in Nuang who also bird alone like me. He says he had waited 10 years to shoot this elusive bird. Well that the thrill of birding that worth waiting for. The ficus nearby is riping which the hornbill do feed on them.
