On safari in Kenya when waiting to see a lion or leopard you can always look up (or in this case down) to see one of the many hundreds of species of native birds.
The Ground Hornbill is a very cool looking bird, and I was lucky to see them walking in the tall grass on my last safari. Like most wildlife, in recent times, its populations have fallen. But there is hope for this bird as well as all the others if you support conservation.

I hope by watching my videos you will want to go on safari and see animals in their natural habitats. If I can afford to go, anyone can:)

Thanks for watching me on Metacafe -Brian
