Did You Know....? - Bizzare Birds


The home of the Great Indian Hornbill is a prison. When the female is ready to lay her eggs, she hides in a hole in a tree.
The male then seals up the hole, leaving just a narrow slit through which he passes food. Safe from predators, the female remains locked up until the chicks are a few months old.
