Beauties Of Nation Birds - Keel-billed toucan

Best recognized for its outsized bill, the keel-billed toucan is a massive and colourful chook with black plumage, a bright yellow throat and cheeks, vivid pink feathers below its tail and a yellow-green face. Its light green, banana-shaped bill is splashed with orange and tipped with pink and blue, and can grow to be a third of the measurement of the toucan’s 20-inch body.

Though cumbersome looking, the bill is honestly quite light because it is made of protein and supported through hole bones. The toucan’s very wide wings, however, are heavy and make flight laborious.
