A super shot, congratulations!
What a great experience it must be to find a bird like this in the wild and to be able to shoot a photo like you did.
I truly envy you!

If you can't find the words, you may as well shoot it...

Marietha, you did very well in the Kruger Park: the one stunning image after another. Agree with Paul's comment above.
What did you give this hornbill for posing so willingly, lol.
Regards, Cornelius

This is a wonderful shot. I love how the hornbills beak matches the colour of the leaves! The colour, clarity and composition and of course the frame make this definately one for my fav's too! Well done! Thanks for sharing!

Great capture of the hornbill. This particular bird looks sort of different. Pretty bird.
