It was trying to make a call. The beak’s what caught my attention. It’s huge, to say the least, and the sound was unlike anything I’d heard before although, if you ask me now, I don’t remember what it sounded like then… EXIF Info Exposure f/6.3 1/250 sec ISO 800 Focal Length in 35mm 450 Date taken 2018:12:26 14:35:10 Camera NIKON D3200 Spread the love Tweet Post navigation TiredThe Lioness 8 Comments Wonderful 🙂 Reply Thanks, Joshi… 🙂 Reply It almost doesn't look real, Sudipto. Well done. Reply Thank you kindly, Ginnie… 🙂 Reply Magnifique priseJP Reply Merci, JP. 🙂 Reply it does look impressive, Sudipto. i remember from somewhere that for birds with such beaks, they are made of a fairly hollow honeycomb like structure so that it does not add to their weight significantly. Reply An interesting beak indeed. Reply Leave a Reply Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
