    Nicely done!

    With "hideous" do you mean to say it hides a lot? Because it's definitely not an ugly bird in my opinion :)     Posted 3 years ago

    Yes, indeed, this species is hiding a lot, noisy, but difficult to see and _very_ difficult to photograph, normally. There are not many photographies on the net. Sorry, nix speak english ;) Posted 3 years ago
