These two were very proud of their nesting material (my best guess) and were strutting around their enclosure, showing off. You can see clearly why they are called hornbills.
BTW, are you a #zookeeper ? My wife and I volunteer at our local zoo. (You might guess I'm a photographer.)

Went to the Metro Richmond Zoo last week, and these two hornbills were very proud of their nesting material (my best guess). They were strutting around their enclosure, showing off to anyone who stopped to take a look.
A shock of fiery red feathers and blue rimmed
eyes announce the arrival of the majestic yellow-casqued #hornbill

Southern Yellow-billed Hornbill, Kruger National park, South Africa. Its mate was nearby.

so happy to spot this hornbill outside our window this morning! it looks unreal with eyes that look like drawings of eyes
One of the species I really wanted to see in #SouthAfrica was the Southern Ground Hornbill - a fascinating and endangered bird. What a privilege to see this family group.

Magnificent #hornbill couples nest in ancient trees, females stay put while males bring food for chicks. Hornbills need old #forest to survive, #palmoil #deforestation is a huge threat! Resist and #BoycottPalmOil

Southern Ground Hornbill in The Kruger Park, South Africa. #KrugerNationalPark #birds #hornbill
We have now arrived in The #Gambia ahead of our guests arrival and we are meeting some amazing #Birds #Nature and our #FlywayFamily
The long-staying Black-casqued #Hornbill and White-faced Scop’s #Owl among our first encounters alongside commonly encountered species that leave you buzzing with ornithological excitement!
Little Bee-eaters, Red-billed Firefinch and Pied #Kingfishers surround us as Green #Monkeys watch the swirling raptors above.
Day 14, The night in Damaraland, #Namibia was cold. We had double layers of clothing + sleeping bags + a blanket, and it was still chilly in the tent. Measured 7.6 C (45 F) in the morning. Hard to believe after the tropical Zambezi region just a few days ago, with nights in the 20s C (70s F).
We were repaid by wonderful night skies and a yellow-billed #hornbill waiting for us in the morning, looking to snatch a piece of bread from the breakfast table.
I love the dragon-style #hornbill
