This is a Coppersmith Barbet, it looks like a cross between a Frogmouth and a Lorikeet 
Has a strange call that sounds like a hammer striking metal …

Lorikeet’s make odd sounds too! Heard/saw them for the 1st time in Long Beach, CA, They are really colorful & cute. But this is really intriguing looking.
