Eastern Plantain-eater
Crinifer zonurus
Hippo Point, Lake Victoria, Kenya. Oct. 2016.
From Wikipedia: Common, noisy and conspicuous birds but lacking the brilliant colors of other turaco. They are 50 cm long, including a long tail, and weigh 392–737 g. Their plumage is mainly gray above spotted with brown. The head, erectile crest, neck and breast are brown streaked with silver. The underparts are whitish, heavily streaked with brown. Eastern plantain-eater has a thick bright yellow bill, and shows a white wing bar in flight. The sexes appear similar, but immatures have a black woolly head without silver streaking.
