A color photo of a pair of (pied) Great Hornbills, perched side by side, on the branch of a tree. Their plumage is primarily black & yellow. Their bills are long and have a U-shaped casque they use for sexual display & fighting. They're large, eat fruit & are nearly threatened. They're mostly found in dense forests in India & Asia. 📷 Eril Anwar / Feb. 2026

oil painting depicting a crowded flock of 18 different hornbills “Hunt Slonem's paintings are at once vibrant, energetic and colorful, yet also deeply spiritual and contemplative. The artist creates exotic forms with expressive and highly textural brushstrokes that are full of intense color, loosely inspired by artists of the German Expressionism movement. As a child, Slonem first felt a connection to birds. The fascination continued into adulthood; not only does he admire the colorful animals from afar, but he also collects the exotic birds. Slonem utilizes the intense colors of the neo-expressional style that mirrors the interesting worlds in which these animals exist. He describes his work with one word, “Exotica.” Slonem creates beautiful, surprising scenes that offer a calming joy to those who encounter it. From the very beginning, animals and the natural world, most notably birds, have been the central focus of his work. For Slonem, birds signify divinity and transcendence in their ability to leave the realm of earth and its constraints through flight. He sees the ability of birds to fly - to achieve atmospheric height - as a direct metaphor for transcendence from an earthly to a spiritual realm.”
Happy #LoveHornbillsDay!

Image depicts a male and female Wrinkled Hornbill resting on a tree limb. The male has is wings open on display, he has pale yellowish throat and a yellow and red bill and casque. Female has a plain yellow bill and casque and bare blue skin around the eyes and on the neck pouch. This year I'm studying the endangered Wrinkled Hornbill found in the forests of Thai-Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo. They primarily eat fruit, like figs, but will consume small prey like frogs. Loss of habitat and deforestation is likely the main cause of their endangered status. Sketch study art work, indented for learning purposes.
Today is I ❤️ #HornbillsDay !

‘Blyth’s Hornbills: Halmahera’
gouache, 49 x 20 cms
The island of Halmahera lies between Borneo and New Guinea.
Blyth’s Hornbills are dependent on large, mature trees so are vulnerable to deforestation caused by logging, mining and clearance for agriculture. #blythshornbill #hornbills #birdart

The Abyssinian Ground-Hornbill is without doubt one of the most emblematic & distinctive and one of Africa’s largest #Hornbills.
It can be hard to find, keeping to foraging often among the savannah long grass - we were particularly fortunate to encounter them foraging very close to our group!
