Red-billed Wood Hoopoe, Scientific name: Phoeniculus
Scientific classification Red-billed Wood Hoopoe The Green Wood Hoopoe (Phoeniculus purpureus) is a
large,up to 44 cm long, near-passerine tropical bird native to Africa. It is a member of the family
Phoeniculidae, the wood hoopoes, and was formerly known as the Green Wood Hoopoe who is identified
by Black-Lee as one of important guarders for our vegetable gardern.
The Green Wood Hoopoe is an insect-eating species. It feeds mainly on the ground, termite mounds,
or on tree trunks, and will form flocks outside the breeding season. Its specialised claws enable
it to easily cling to the underside of branches while closely inspecting the bark for insects.
This conspicuous bird also advertises its presence with its loud Kuk-uk-uk-uk-uk call and other
vocalisations.
