Eurasian Hoopoe – Upupa epops epops – a fairly common resident bird here in the UAE – the long beak is used to dig grubs and other creatures from the ground - have these guys occasionally in my garden they are a real treat - when excited the crest fully inflates. This one is in Safa Park – Dubai.

Another bird ive finally got some photos of,although they could be better.Not sure where they originate from,but this hoopoe was in the desert part of paignton zoo.They have lovely colours and markings,and a crest that lifts up to look a bit like a mohican,and a curved beak.
This hoopoe appeared in our local area and stayed around for two or three weeks. It was down on the coast and lots of people went to see it. As a result it became quite confiding giving good photographic opportunities.
African Bird
This lovely bird spent quite a long time in our Hotel Garden in the south-west of the island. Clearly it was digging for insects. But I was delighted when it raised its decorative crest! Taaken with my Olympus SP550UZ
