Kingfisher and Hornbill

Another 15 minutes of bird photography this morning.
Managed to capture this:
--> White-throated Kingfisher
(Pekaka Dada Putih)
Halcyon smyrnensis









How much do I have to crop the original picture below? That is the only way to identify it.
With ISO 1600 to maintain a sufficient shutter speed, the final image is very grainy. Can't even see the bird's eyes.
I think a 400mm telephoto will solve this issue.
Time for Canon 400mm f5.6 prime "L" lens.
This is what a photography forum called "racun"

















Enggang
Oriental Pied Hornbill
(Anthracoceros albirostris)
