tanzanian red-billed hornbill Tockus ruahae

A fairly small, slim, long-tailed hornbill. Note the red bill, the dark eye with a ring of black skin, and the heavily spotted back. White patches on the wing and outer tail are conspicuous in flight. Found locally in moderately moist savanna and woodland, usually in areas with baobabs and acacias. Similar to Northern Red-billed Hornbill, but separated by the black rather than pale bare skin around the eye. Call is a series of clucks that starts with single notes, then becomes louder and more emphatic, with doubled notes.
