No guesses ? OK here's a clue - its a Southern African bird rather than East African.

I am surprised nobodu recognises an eaglingo!

 

Nyamera; close, but a flameagle is brown, with a flamingo-like bill.

 

(pic came from a friend, so I'm not the one with too much time on his hands ...at least not this time)

 

:D

 

Ok seriously then;

Nope and nope.

 

OK,some tips.

 

- We're looking for something bigger than a chat.

- this is a juvenile. The first year these birds have some black in their crown (which turns paler later) and rufous in their primaries (which turns into the same color as on their backsides).

- it does not like building nests

- turacos are from the same order

 

NOW you really should find it...
