Toucans

More South American wildlife. These birds have come down from the mountains to feed on fruiting trees. Only ten minutes drive from town. They are very flighty and hard to get close to.

Tracked and spooked a brocket too (no shot opportunity) on my last visit to the toucan grove so am organising to take a bow and camera next time.

Spectacular!
The best trophies I can hope to acquire as a husband, father, friend or hunter are MEMORIES!
They will travel with me wherever life's path leads...

Thanks for the photos Tommo. They sure are an unusual looking bird. That second shot looks good with the sun lighting up the beak. It must be great seeing them in the wild.
