Now i have completed my picture of this bird male and female. The female is not very sharp and clear but to get this bird are extreamly difficult. Need to spend a lot time and effort as well as luck. This male picture taken 2 years ago at Poring Hots spring and the fenale is this year also at poring but different location.
