I think it is more likely to be a crested serpent eagle, [i]Spilornis cheela[/i]

How about Crested Honey Buzzard male?

The facial pattern looks more like a serpent eagle, although it does look a bit like a honey buzzard. This one looks like a serpent eagle to me.

Dark morph Crested Honey-Buzzard for me.

Although there are similarities between Crested Serpent Eagle & Crested Honey-Buzzard, the jizz (amongst other plumage features) looks wrong for Serpent Eagle. Compare photo at [url]http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?Bird_ID=838&Bird_Image_ID=14324&Bird_Family_ID=[/url] with the image here.

You're right it does kind of match the website. I'm not sure about this one, it looks like both. From first glance it did look like a serpent eagle, but now I see what you mean, the patterns are slightly different.

I saw the same individual at TPK a week ago with a friend from UK, the wings were much narrower compare to that of CSE, tail also looked longer especially when seen in the field, sometimes photos can be slightly distorted I think. A very dark individual indeed.

I am glad that this bird has attracted some attention. Here is one more picture of the same bird showing the upper plumage and insects around which may be the reason why the bird was there.

From this angle it seems like a honey buzzard. Thank you all for explaining the difference. I agree, it is probably a honey buzzard. Nice shot!3551d5f02ecd445
