Observation details
The focus of this morning's search. Managed to hear 6+ and eventually found a male high up in the canopy. Saw those magnificent head plumes but didn't see them twist around when he was calling. A truly magnificent bird and that crazy whirring call fits its extraterrestrial appearance quite well. Managed to see a young male from the road in the afternoon. This was Nick's 1000th bird for Indonesia.
