Africa's Stories

An Eastern African Yellow Billed Hornbill is sitting on the back of a chair in an exquisitely decorated interior filled with books about Africa including, "Heart Of Darkness", by Joseph Conrad and photos of a tusker elephant, a giraffe and a lion. I have always been fascinated by hornbills and this bird is a gorgeous example of this species.
