Red-billed Hornbill (Tockus erythrorhynchus) is a hornbill. Hornbills are a family of tropical near-passerine birds found in the Old World.
The Red-billed Hornbill is a common resident breeder in much of sub-Saharan Africa. During incubation, the female lays three to six white eggs in a tree hole, which is blocked off with a plaster of mud, droppings and fruit pulp. There is only one narrow aperture, just big enough for the male to transfer food to the mother and the chicks.
