Streak-breasted Scimitar-babbler, Black-collared Starling, and Black-crowned Night Heron. The Starling had a very abnormally shaped bill. Never seen anything like that. Makes it look like a spiderhunter.

Thanks Brendan .. yes agreed, this is first time I ever seen Starling with long bill, I shot another one the same afternoon with normal short bill .
