The Toco Toucan is one of the headline species of the Pantanal. We were fortunate enough to start seeing them right from the beginning. This one happens to be the first one we saw. That bright orange beak is so impressive it is no surprise that everyone wants to see one when they visit the area.

Nearing the breeding season, these toucans with an incredibly colorful bill were observed in bonding behavior such as food exchange. Seen at Laguna Lagarto. CR.
The Toco toucan is at home in South America's tropical forests but recognized everywhere. The toucan's oversized, colorful bill has made it one of the world's most popular birds.
As a weapon, the Toucan's bill is more show than substance. It is a honeycomb of bone that actually contains a lot of air. While its size may deter predators, it is of little use in combating them.
But the Toucan's bill is useful as a feeding tool. They use them to reach fruit on branches that are too small to support their weight, and also to skin their pickings. Apart from fruit, Toco toucans eat insects and, sometimes, young birds, eggs, or lizards.
Ramphastos toco (also known as the Common Toucan) is the largest of the toucan family and has the largest bill relative to body size of all birds.

I was so excited to see and photograph these keel-billed toucans in Costa Rica. There were about 7 of them hanging out in the trees near our hotel one morning.

The toco toucan, also known as the common toucan or giant toucan, is the largest and probably the best known species in the toucan family. It is found in semi-open habitats throughout a large part of central and eastern South America. It is a common attraction in zoos.
Thank you my friends for popping by.
I really appreciate your visits, comments & favourites.
Wishing all my Flickr friends a Beautiful Weekend
Take care and stay safe everyone
Thank you

I generally do not like to take pictures of animals or birds in captivity but I will never get the chance to see one of these beautiful birds in the wild, so I took the shot. This shot was taken at the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine Florida.

Loving trying to capture the personality of this beautiful Toucan; a happy fly about freely bird in the Assiniboine Zoo's Tropical House. He is very inquisitive and he loves to pose for certain people, lol. Imagine having to look down a beak the length of almost half your body and eat and drink and carry on like nothing is out of the ordinary.
I snapped this beauty at The National Aviary in Pittsburgh PA...Thank you very much for viewing my photo ! I truly appreciate any faves and comments ! 🐦

Taking a journey down memory lane to an amazing trip to Costa Rica back in 2017. I'm getting itchy feet to go back at some point soon - such an amazing place!
