Photo Request-- hornbills

Hi Members,Our friends at the wildlife magazine are now looking for images of Southern Ground Hornbills. These are remarkable looking African birds and the interesting thing is that they feed/hunt/live in groups and it’s those group shots they are struggling to find.Specifically they need:- group shots- nesting- feeding- chicks- fighting/hunting/flyingTheir wild status is essential, so I am afraid images taken in captivity will not be considered.Upload data:1. DEADLINE: Monday 11th June 2007; 12:00 noon GMT 2. FILESIZE: 300dpi minimum; colour; preferred dimension 2480 x 1750 pixels3.
