Green-eared Barbet

A true field photograph, I captured this barbet out the window of out car as he devoured fruit from this roadside tree. I am usually partial to cleaner backgrounds facilitated by set-ups, but I think it is important to show birds as they would appear under completely natural circumstances. This photo isn't the most cracking of the Thailand bunch, but it is the most accurate depiction of how this species will appear when viewed in a birdwatching context, for example.
