BIRDS:The Oriental Pied Hornbill
We were surprised when an Oriental Pied Hornbill (Scientific name: Anthracoceros albirostris / 冠斑犀鸟) came into view! The photograph doesn't have the ideal resolution as we were pretty eager to capture it before it discovered our presence.
It was a shy creature which was at perfect ease until we crept closer towards the tree it was perching at. The hornbill got abit wary & this could be illustrated in the next 2 photographs.

I assure you that the nature lovers wouldn't be disappointed after visiting the comprehensive website! In fact, both my hubby & myself had been very happy & thankful with the creators of the website as it was almost an encyclopedia of the birds of Singapore. The amount of work involved in creating such a website was gargantuan!
And here is a professionally taken photograph of a cute-looking (male) Oriental Pied Hornbill by Mr Paul Huang:

I also wish to take this opportunity to thank Mr Paul Huang of http://www.naturestops.com for granting his kind permission in allowing me to use his beautiful photographs in this forum.
It had certainly made an eye-opening difference to a nature lover like myself!
Postscript: However, my photographs stood out like a sore thumb as compared to his professionally taken photographs. Mine looks simply... amateurish.
