"This blue morpho was clearly interested in our white-cheeked tourako today.
The touraco reacted playfully and allowed the butterfly to move on. Good thing butterflies are not on his menu."

The unmistakable Violaceous Touraco, also known as the Violet Touraco.
Like most of the touraco family, in flight there is a flash of red from its crimson flight feathers. Despite these bright colours the birds are often quite indistinguishable in the dense canopy of the forest.

The stunning Violaceous Touraco with that glossy violet colour, except for their thick orange bill, yellow forehead and crimson crown. Also the main flight feathers on the wings are also crimson in colour.

The Purple-crested Touraco wears a rich violet crest above its bright green head, set off by a vivid red eye-ring & a sleek black bill. Its neck & chest blend shades of green & warm brown, while the rest of its body glows purple; when it opens its wings, striking flashes of crimson flight feathers.

"Les mots sont faibles, mieux vaut utiliser un dessin.
Dessiner après tout, c'est être un peu magicien..."
Même si le monde a perdu de sa magie depuis son départ, j'ai pris Frank Pé au mot et j'ai ressorti mes feutres pour gribouiller quelques bestioles que l'on aimait bien.
Il me manque beaucoup.

Thank you to the four girls who came up on stage at the Free Flying Bird Show. They held up perches so that White-cheeked Touraco 'Chico' could hop between them and show off the fabulous red feathers on his wings.

The Livingstone's Touraco. We gave the pair currently at Paradise Park a home after an illegal attempt was made to import them into Europe and they were seized by the authorities.

A stunning Red-crested Touraco. ❤️
Touracos are forest dwelling birds from Africa, which eat a wide range of fruit inc. banana, grape, pear, apples, fig & guava. We sprinkle ‘insectiverous’ mixture on top of their fruit which gives the vitamins, minerals and protein they need.

Le festival Groaaar existe depuis 2018 & je trépigne à l’idée d’y aller depuis sa création. Il réunit tout ce que j’aime : de la BD grâce à la super librairie Tribulles et des animaux dans un des endroits les plus impliqués dans la conservation de France, le parc zoologique et botanique de Mulhouse.

Success for foster touraco parents.
Paradise Park has bred many touracos, however, the Fischer’s pair had not succeeded in rearing chicks.
Head of Softbills, Becky Waite, hatched a plan... to foster Fischer’s eggs under White-cheeked Touracos with great success!

What happened to all the racing schools in the UK, where, for a few quid per lesson you could work your way up to race level ? JRRDC, SRS, Scorpion/IanTaylor, Touraco, Everyman. All long gone and were a way for aspiring drivers to make a few quid teaching others.
