Ping: Britta (OT)

Ok this is way off topic. Seven year old grandson went to the local zoo and
is doing a project on something he saw. He selected the Great Hornbill.

Now I know you are quite a photographer, and that they are in some of the
places you have visited. Do you by any remote chance have any picture of
them on line? Or that you could email to jofirey at sbcbell dot net ?

We found some online, but I thought maybe you had some as well.

If you haven't already left on you latest trek. If you have, I hope you are
having a wonderful time.

Uh oh. This is going to make me seem extremely ignorant. But I don't
even know what a Great Hornbill is. Is it a bird? It sounds like a
bird. I'm very bad with birds. Sorry but I definitely don't have any
pics of that. If you can tell me a bit more about them, I'll keep my
eyes out in the future!
Good luck to your grandson on his project.

I don't normally like to butt-in on "pings" (unless it's of the Siamese
variety ), but I did a google search and they have the following:

Oops. It is a great big bird. They live in south east India, thru to
Thailand. I can't remember now the area but would think it would be
southwest Thailand. They are black with a huge yellow beak. And at six and
a half pounds I'm guessing that is one big bird.

Hmmm, never seen one. Never seen too many birds of any kind in
Thailand. Either they are all endangered or they stay well hidden!
I looked at the pics that Magic posted and they are gorgeous, so I'll
have to keep my eye out because I would love to see one.
I love Australia where you can see so many exotic looking birds in the
trees. Unfortunately, Thailand is rather barren when it comes to that
:-( I'm not surprised though because the locals tend to shoot into
the trees at birds. I've seen it on all the elephant treks I've ever
been on.

Wow, we've been very close to those paddling destinations, several
times. However, we've always gone kayaking in the mangroves, and not
in the open water. We've seen monitor lizards and monkeys but no bird
life. I'll have to remember this site for something different to do
the next time we go down south.
