Framed Print of Abyssinian Hornbill, White-Necked Crow, and Small Hornbill, Zoological Society, Regent's Park, 1865. Creator: Dalziel Brothers
Abyssinian Hornbill, White-Necked Crow, and Small Hornbill, Zoological Society, Regent's Park, 1865. African birds. The large, gaunt-looking bird, [foreground], and companions of which are seen in various positions on the rocks behind and in the air above, is one of the strange family of hornbills - the Bucerotidae of naturalists. Departing widely from the usual habits of his congeners, which are generally forest-lovers and fruit-eaters, the ground hornbill, as its name indicates, inhabits the open districts of inner Africa, and lives on insects and reptiles...The example in the...Society's possession may be generally seen either stalking about on the floor or perched upon the summit of a tree in the roomy aviary in which he is kept...The figure on the tree in the right-hand corner is that of a small and very elegant member of the same group of birds - the red-billed hornbill (Toccus erythrorhynchus). This is a native of Western Africa, where it resorts to the forests, and lives probably altogether on fruit...The white-usped crow (Corvus albicollis), which is shown perched on the trunk of the tree...[is] a scarce bird in captivity; the present specimen...being believed to be the first example of this bird ever brought alive to this country'.
