Unfortunately I don't know the name of this hornbill. I searched on the internet but couldn't find a bird that looks like this one. Maybe someone can help me. I captured this colorful fellow in birdpark Veldhoven.
Hope you like it.

Hello Zeno,
I think this is a Rhinoceros Hornbill (Buceros rhinoceros) from SE Asia. It seems to be young bird as the bill and the horn are not quite fully developed. As usual for you, a fine sharp shot. The horn and bill contrast well against the dark background.
TFS, regards, Ivan

Hi Zeno,
What an impressive beak. Gorgeous colors on it.
Great portrait POV.
Did you do some PP on this shot? I see a halo behind the head.
TFS this beautiful bird. : )

Hi Zeno,
Veldhoven seems to be THE PLACE for weird birds :) Why does it have too beak??? This is so strange… I saw one picture of this bird before and still, I don't understand... Nature is so amazing! This is a great portrait with very good details especially on the beak and eye. Well done with the dark feathers too. Thanks!

Hi Zeno ! I really like the way you have captured this bird. With the dark background and strong colors and the beautiful eye it makes a great portrait of this bird. Very good camera work, thanks !

Ciao Zeno. Bellissima foto. Colori e nitidezza eccezionali. Ho l'impressione che questo uccello non appartiene alla famiglia dei piciforme. Ho fatto una ricerca e non sono stato in grado di identificarlo.
