Beautiful Birds Tuesday: hosted by generous and talented Susan Birdโค๏ธR ๐บ๐ธ. My best search result suggests this bird is Blythโs hornbill aka the Papuan hornbill.
Absolutely gorgeous Blythโs hornbill, Debra! Wonderful coloring! New bird for me, thank you. It is a huge, spectacular hornbill of lowland and foothill forest. A large, ivory-colored bill with a rippled casque on top. Presence often betrayed by loud wingbeats overhead. Forages in the canopy for fruit and sometimes, small animal prey. Voice, far-carrying, gruff barks, or grunts โgew! gew! gew!โ. Thank you for sharing this fabulous bird and joining the Beautiful Bird Challenge.
