Emerald Toucanet, Aulacorhynchus prasinus
Today, on “Birds That Are Hard To Photograph Bc They Keep Biting Me”, is a teensy-tiny powerhouse of fury: the emerald toucanet! These beautiful birds are mostly frugivorous, but they’re also notorious net poachers. It didn’t happen this year, but apparently toucanets have been captured in the past with half-devoured hummingbirds in their bills. YIKES.
Toucan play that game 😉 Toco toucan chicks hatched here for the 1st time in 32 years! Details: http://bit.ly/ToucanChix
