Curl-Crested Aracari

Scientific Name: Pteroglossus beauharnaesi

Range: South America

Habitat: Tropical forests

Food: Fruit

Curled head feathers look like curly black ribbons. The large colorful bill is used for plucking fruit and drinking water from tree crevices.

While sleeping, this type of toucan protects its bill by resting its head on its back and flipping the tail over the top, like a cover.
