Indian Grey Hornbill commented on by Piali Bopanna Karnataka, India10 years ago

Malabar Grey Hornbills don't have casques. Also, they don't have black beaks(at least the ones I've seen). The females have a faded orange beak, while males have beaks which are a brighter orange.

I don't think it is a Malabar Grey Hornbill. Looks like an Indian Grey Hornbill to me.
