Southern Red-billed Hornbill

Tockus rufirostris (Sundevall, CJ 1850)

The southern red-billed hornbill is a species of hornbill in the family Bucerotidae, which is native to the savannas and dryer bushlands of southern Africa. It is replaced by a near-relative, the Damara red-billed hornbill, in the arid woodlands of western Namibia. All five red-billed hornbills were formerly considered conspecific. Source: Wikipedia
