Calao à joues argentées - Lors de la ponte, la femelle est enfermée dans la cavité d'un tronc d'arbre scellée au moyen d'un enduit de fiente et de boue, ne laissant qu'une petite ouverture, et dans laquelle elle va pondre ses œufs et s'occuper des petits. Pendant cette période de "captivité" pouvant durer jusqu'à 5 mois, elle est tributaire du mâle, qui fait 1600 allers-retours et lui apporte plus de 20000 fruits, pour elle et les oisillons.

Silvery-cheeked hornbill’s show. It is a game in which a thrown grape is caught in the air.
He is very good for it.

Yup… that’s a dinosaur. The Silvery-cheeked Hornbill (Bycanistes brevis) uses its immense beak to dine on a variety of snacks, including fruit, insects, bats, and even smaller birds. It’s found in parts of eastern Africa, including Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Mozambique. Like other hornbills, its beak is topped with a helmet-like structure called a casque which helps amplify its barking calls. This casque is made of keratin, which is the same protein that makes up your hair, skin, and nails!

This is also a prime location to spot rare and critically endangered species, like the Bearded Vulture and the Egyptian Vulture. The Ngorongoro Crater is a must-visit destination for any bird lover seeking a one-of-a-kind experience with the professionally guided safaris in Kenya.
Tarangire National Park - A Hidden Gem for Bird Enthusiasts
While not as famous as some of its counterparts, Tarangire National Park offers an extraordinary bird watching experience. The park's towering baobab trees serve as perches for raptors, including the Bateleur Eagle and the African Hawk-Eagle.

初めてみるサイチョウ!ここはオオサイチョウもツノもギンガオもミナミジもいてすごい
鳥インフルエンザの影響であまり見られないようになってますが、、
早くこの病気が終息することを祈っています。
@埼玉県こども動物自然公園
It was my first time seeing this species of hornbill. They have red faces around their eyes.
There are also ‘Great hornbill’, ‘Rhinoceros’, ‘Silvery-cheeked’, and ‘Southern Ground’ here. It was so great!
But due to bird flu we can’t watch all of the wonderful bird’s house right now.
I pray that this disease will end soon.
