This is an an unusual city sighting: a keel billed Toucan snacking on some Palm nuts right above a busy city street. We saw this beauty on Newtown Barracks, near Hummingbird Elementary, helping himself to the Palm nuts on Dame Minita’s tree. He didn’t seem bothered by the attention as he hung around on a five foot fence mugging for passers-by who were snapping pictures. The national bird likes brightly coloured fruits, and for the palm nut, he uses his long beak to crack it open.
