Chocó Toucan (Ramphastos brevis)

The Chocó toucan (Ramphastos brevis) looks very similar to chestnut-mandibled and yellow-throated toucans, but as the name implies this species only exists in the Chocó region, the Pacific slopes, of Ecuador and Colombia.

As with other toucan species it loves handouts of fruits and is a frequent visitor to feeding stations providing favorite fruits like banana and papaya.
