"Hornbills are among the most charismatic, fascinating and awesome of birds, yet surprisingly little is known about them, dedicated studies are few, and they’re incredibly elusive and hard to study. Approximately 60 hornbill species occur across tropical Africa and Asia, and also in the Middle East and Australasia."

This got local birders excited.
"A species of hornbill known to have been locally extinct has been recently spotted at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve in recent days."

Three Oriental Pied Hornbills (Anthracoceros albirostris) spotted at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore on 23 Aug 2025. They were lingering in the area, maybe looking for some food. They attracted a crowd of onlookers, me included.

#Hornbills, #otters and even a #tapir: #Singapore is #rewilding
Once-lost species are coming back to the densely built-up city-state
September 14, 2023
"In a metropolis of 5.6m people, says Lim Liang Jim, head of biodiversity at the National Parks Board, the priority has been conserving or recreating natural habitats, as well as connecting natural spaces with corridors to let species move and spread. The #renaturalisation of river banks that were previously concreted over helped the otters. A former #railway to #Malaysia is now a “#GreenCorridor” whose damp verges are full of #insects, #frogs and #waterhens. The planted sides and central verges of highways allow smaller animals to move more safely."
