Wreathed Hornbill

| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The Wreathed Hornbill (Rhyticeros undulatus), also known as the Bar-pouched Wreathed Hornbill, is a species of hornbill found in forests from far north-eastern India and Bhutan, east and south through mainland south-east Asia and the Greater Sundas, except Sulawesi. It is 75-100 cm (30-40 in) long. Males weigh from 1.8 kg (4 lbs) to 3.65 kg (8 lbs), females weigh from 1.36 kg (3 lbs) to 2.7 kg (6 lbs).[2] Both sexes are similar to the respective sexes of the closely related Plain-pouched Hornbill, but they can be recognized by the lack of a dark bar on their throat (hence the alternative common name for the Wreathed Hornbill; Bar-pouched).

Olá, Adrian!
Very interesting bird. It looks like a toucan, one bird that we have here in Brazil. You can see a picture of mine clicking here.
Good POV and nice colors, friend. I posted a WS and hope you don´t mind.
Greetings from Brazil,
Bruno
