Notes:   Heard calling from a tree, I approached searching for it and it flew to the next tree and went into a cavity at 12h08. It stuck it's head out of the cavity and rested there for a while. I approached to get better pictures and it left, perched on the top of the tree, waited a few seconds, defecated then flew away
