This bird has eyelashes

Today I visited the Safaripark Beekse Bergen in the Netherlands. The Abyssinian ground hornbill was one of the first animals I encountered. This large terrestrial bird is found in Northern sub-Saharan Africa. In many African cultures the bird is considered sacred, or at least useful as an exterminator of snakes, mice and grasshoppers.
She was not easy to photograph through the mesh, but it worked out quite well. Notice the long feathers that look like eyelashes? Yes, she is quite a lady.

CBW: Wood, wood, and even more wood
The art object in the header is made from a single piece of wood! Amazing.
And in the photo below, everything is wood: the houses, the fence, the boat. Yes, even the trees! Except the grass. 😉

The leading role in this photo goes to a penguin that is swimming underwater, casting his reflection up to the surface. An upside-down take on the theme. 😉
