Some times it looks sinuous with a precise silhouette other times it literally looks like, a puffed-up pall of feathers

One of my favorites captures from Parambikulam, Kerala

One of Africa’s “Ugly 5” is this scary looking bad boy. Kind of reminds me of burnt Anakin Skywalker right before he gets put into the Darth Vader suit.

It's Endemic to East Africa, I took this photo during my recent birding Safari at Arabuko Sokoke Forest

The male of course, gets a lot of attention for it's beautiful tail feathers but the female is just as stunning. Pictured in Parambikulam Tiger Reserve, Kerala.

Another beautiful bird I spotted in the Masai Mara, Kenya.

This bad boy was perched on the highest branch searching for breakfast in the morning sun.

This is an Abyssinian ground hornbill found in Murchison Falls National Park in northwestern Uganda.

Mama great blue heron feeding her babies. Taken a few years ago at the Bath Road Heronry in Northeast Ohio.

Parambikulam was very generous this time. Got to see this beautiful bird on my last day. One more off the list.
