Abyssinian Ground Hornbill
Hornbills and ground hornbills, who are in different familes, are prehistoric looking birds. At the beginning of the trip, we saw a lot of Abyssinian Ground Hornbills. Almost all of them were in male-female pairs. The males have blue and red skin on their face, while the females, such as the one pictured above, have only blue. Some were walking in an area that had just been burnt, hoping to find food in the ashes. I saw this one at Murchison Falls National Park, where I saw more than forty over a two-day period. I saw one group trying to eat what looked like a small antelope.
