You mean Helmeted hornbill ? Could you show a less dark pic please ?

What a interesting hornbill

Oh yes, helmeted hornbill, sorry! I was not good with common names and I've just translated authomatically in my mind the Spanish common name for this bird into English. In case of doubt with my animals, always trust the scientific name!

Here is your lighter photo, I've put aside my window that is the most luminous point of my home :)

It changed the berry for its legs

He lost his legs in 2009 after an unfortunate accident, but he's still fine for my collection

Such great birds !!!

I love it that you have such a variety of brands, it makes it all more interesting and fun

It is always surprising to see the variety of figures do you have but sometimes it is surprising also to see some you don't have. What about the Bullyland green woodpecker, don't you like it because it is the same mould as the other or was it just not of your interest?

Really nice, I did not know there was a bullyland great spotted woodpecker but again, I know nothing about Bullyland.

I would like to ask you one comparison pic more if you don't mind

Adam, it may interest you to know that in 1997 the great spotted woodpecker was bird of the year in Germany, and Bullyland made this one and a Green woodpecker in 1998 to celebrate.
They were both retired in 2003

Very interesting Susanne, thanks for sharing :)

Roger: I didn't get the green woodpecker as it wasn't available on Sanspieldefiguren at the time of purchase. I wouldn't get it anyway due to the same mould. The green woodpecker as a species in figure form may be harder to find but I struggle to find Japanese figures.

What particular comparison photo would you like Ben?

I would like to figure out what size is the ivory billed woodpecker from CollectA so a picture of it next to another bird like the Schleich toucan for example would be fine.

I'll do it for tomorrow morning :)

Wonderful all these Piciformes friends!        
Andréas what brand is the Rhinoceros Hornbill? and can you put us some very interesting pictures of the subject!
