The African Grey Hornbill is a medium-sized bird native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is easily recognized by its distinctive curved bill, which is often yellow or orange. These birds typically inhabit savannas, woodlands, and forest edges, where they feed on insects, fruits, and small reptiles. African Grey Hornbills are social creatures, often seen in small groups. They are known for their unique nesting behavior, where the female seals herself inside a tree cavity during breeding, leaving only a small opening for the male to provide food. This behavior helps protect the young from predators.
