A Hornbill at last!

Having moved onto camp we've been ever hopeful that we would spot a hornbill. There are a group of them who live in the trees here but they have never yet been in our garden. Until today. Outside at lunch with a cup of coffee I spotted this large bird in the tree. And these are the resulting photos and video. He's a very cheeky guy and was not at all intimidated by our presence. Listen to the video tape and you'll hear what I mean!
