a touch of orange

This bird was ever so friendly and kept coming closer. I finally stood on top of a bench

beneath him and took this photo. Somewhere, on a scrap of paper, I have scribbled

his name . . . now to find it. I do remember that for some reason, his name reminded

me of something you might order from Taco Bell. This was taken in the aviary at

Honolulu Zoo.

 

Update: Turaco . . . I told you it sounded like something you would order from Taco

Bell!! :-))) Remove the u and r and you've got a taco!! Sad how my mind works, isn't

it? Turaco hartlaubi, 15-18 inches long, eats mostly fruit.

 

Happy Feathery Friday!
