Nice low angle. Agree with Roopak, the beak is quite interesting. Wish it was closer for more details. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely beak of this species. Good sighting. I am sure in future you will get one of these at a closer distance. Thanks for sharing.

It was bit far off , didn't get a chance to approach. Just to keep a record, quickly took 2/3 shots. Thanks for the comments & appreciation.
