Don't know the new names anyway!
Chevron's Bustard?

Dewi wrote:No, not lanky enough and does not have the chevrons like your bird.
Check out the very first pic.

Hi Twigga,
This one is a Red-crested Korhaan.
The chevron markings on the back and lack of black on the neck.
Hreat choice for bird of the month, I'll dig out a pic or two to add to those already posted.
Have a great weekend,

Nice, Twigga!
Thihongonyeni in Kruger's far north is a hotspot for Koris!
Saw six or more there on one occasion, and others have too!

RP, Mel and Amoli
We had an amzing sighting of a Kori on the Lower Dune Road in the KTP in December 2008. As we came round a bend this bird took off and it was a Kori - always great to see one in flight but it had a snake in tow
It landed a distance from us but got one pic
