Keel-billed Toucan

KEEL-BILLED TOUCAN, CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA, JANUARY 26, 2014

Pentax K-3
Pentax 55-300 at 135mm
1/320 sec. f6.3
ISO 3200

The deep shade in the Cartagena quayside park forced me to use high ISO to capture this specimen, but post processing took care of most of the resultant noise. Judging by the damage to the front of its bill, this toucan evidently had an encounter with something hostile and probably was rehabilitated in the park.
