Field Notes

Description:

This Oriental Pied Hornbill and its mate would perch just outside our hut every evening. They quickly got used to us walking by and so we could really watch them.

Notes:

It was spotted along the Kinabatangan river Saba, Malaysia.

Carolina was the one who identified it, thanks!

They are great! You'd think with the weight of their beaks it would be hard to fly...
