The Eurasian Hoopoe is a distinctive bird found across Europe, Asia, and North Africa. It is easily recognized by its striking crest of feathers, pinkish-brown body, and black-and-white barred wings. Preferring open habitats like grasslands and farmlands, it uses its long, curved beak to forage for insects and larvae. Known for its unique “hoo-hoo-hoo” call, the Eurasian Hoopoe nests in tree cavities and is celebrated for its vivid appearance and fascinating behaviors.
