I had it also a longtime as Swainsonii ;-)...
Hi Anne-Marie, welcome back! I think this guy is now called: Ramphastos ambiguus swainsonii. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chestnut-mandibled_Toucan http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/8158269
So, not only do you share the name of one of my favorite authors you're living in the place I fell in love with 14 years ago. http://www.bosquedelcabo.com/home/index.html I dream of one day returning to that area. You are so blessed to be living near there. Gorgeous, Toucan btw. :-)
