This is one of my favorite zoo birds--even if I can't say its name 3 times fast. I took this shot at Busch Gardens in Tampa, FL, but I've also seen them at Lowry Zoo in Tampa as well.
I just love that crest and those pink cheeks. You can't see it in this photo, but his pupil is lined with a pretty aqua color.
Here is a full-size photo of him showing off his beautiful plumage.
In this image, you can see why I think they're so beautiful. They don't have much of a fear of humans, though. Although, I've never been to Africa, so I can't say how much they're really afraid of humans. Most zoo animals are pretty much used to us from seeing us on a daily basis.
