Agreed DoinaRussu - getting a good shot of this bird is quite an achievement! (I wish I could!!)
DoinaRussu
great capture, bravo!...is very difficult to photograph this bird because it is very "shy" and hides in tree crown before you close it.....

Akash I added this spotting to your mission http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7669761, actually it is green but I love the yellow eyes, I hope you like it
AnnvanWijgerden
And yes, if it's the same bird as we have round here - their yellow colour is so impressive, and some of their sounds so distinctive.
