Ground Hornbill- Masai Mara Kenya

The Southern Ground Hornbill. These are uncommonly seen local residents in the Masai Mara & similar grasslands throughout East Africa. The size of a turkey, they make a low pitched but loud 'oooomh' noise, often a dawn, that can be easily mistaken for a lion.... especially if it's close to your tent!
