Selenidera reinwardtii

Selenidera reinwardtii (Golden-collared toucanet) is a species of climbing bird.

The song of the golden collar toucan is similar to that of the frog. The golden collar Toucan is omnivorous, feeding on fruits, seeds, and insects, and is sometimes considered a pest in orchards.

The golden collar small tucano generally chooses a tree with good wood to dig the cave, and the opening width is just enough for the adult bird to drill into the hole, and the hole is 17 cm ~ 2 meters deep. If there is a suitable cave near the root of the trunk, the cave is usually selected first, and then further excavation work is done on this basis. Burrowing is an important part of their reproductive behavior. The nest is unlined, and a clutch of 1-5 eggs is laid on sawdust or on a rough layer of reclaimed seeds, which will accumulate thicker as the nest progresses. About 16 days to hatch; It takes at least three weeks for the hatchlings to open their eyes completely naked. After 45 days of birth, the chicks leave the nest and fly away. The chicks then live their lives independently in the leaf cluster.

Protect wild animals and eliminate wild meat.

Maintaining ecological balance is everyone's responsibility!

It is found in South America (Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and the Malvinas Islands (also known as the Falkland Islands)).
The golden-necked toucan is found at altitudes of 400 to 1,000 m and is found mainly in lowland rainforest, sometimes in open areas with sparse trees nearby.

The golden-collar Tuccan is a climbing bird, between 30 and 35 cm long, with a dark green body and wings, a red belly, blue-green bare skin around the eyes, and a distinctive ring of golden feathers at the neck. The male has a complete black crown. There are red undertail coverts and golden ear feathers. The difference between the sexes is obvious, and the plumage of the female bird is lighter than that of the male bird, and the dark green part appears brown. At four weeks of age, chicks can be sexed by their plumage.
There is a beak that is large relative to the body, and the beak is actually very light, not nearly as heavy as it looks. The outside is a thin sheath of keratin, the inside is hollow, but there are many thin bone support rods staggered. The bird's tongue is very long, the margin of the beak is clearly serrated, and there is no mouth beard around the base of the beak. The skin on the exposed part of the face and jaw is usually brightly colored.
