    Default Hornbill Hattrick

    Not the greatest pictures but I really love these guys. If I could, I'd kidnap about 100 of each and turn them loose around my house...

    They red and yellow-billed hornbills flew in front of the truck, trading off about every 100 yards. I made and kept a promise to myself to look at every one of them. There were about a dozen things in Africa that I wanted to bask myself in and hornbills were one of them.

    I'd like to breed some of those to an oxpecker. Fresh out of ideas on what to name the hybrid though.
