All beautiful captures. This bird looks ugly compared to the Quetzal but unique in their own way so they can also be seen as beautiful. The bill looks like the edge of a saw and the color combination is just wild. I like the way you took the pictures. Well done Ariel. Mabuhay.

I don't think I will be able to photograph a Toucan or a Hornbill.. they scare the living daylights out of me! Specially that last picture! It is so alive and menacing!

The toucans are really beautiful most especially when you see them fly. They look like flying bananas |
