Fischer's turaco

[3] Measurements: These green bodied turacos have a white-tipped reddish crest, a black belly, and red primaries.

[7] Their white eye stripes and red orbital skin help to distinguish them from the more common Red-crested turaco.

This species lives in forest thickets, but does favor the canopy and sub-canopy of mature fruiting trees.

[8] They are common in their limited range, but are more often heard than seen because they travel alone or in pairs, which makes them hard to spot.

[9] Once bonded, the Fischer's turaco makes a loose, platform stick nest in the tree canopy.
