Description

The Great Hornbill, one of the rarities of Kaziranga National Park and Tiger Reserve. Belonging to the Near Threatened class of species as per the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, these huge birds are very difficult to spot as they prefer the highest canopies, and capturing them in flight is an uphill task. This particular individual, which we had been observing for quite sometime, suddenly decided to hop on to a higher perch, giving me the shot that I wanted.
