Red-crested turaco — size comparison — facts and sources

The red-crested turaco occurs in Angola's forests and woodland. Green body areas and a prominent red crest are distinctive. It chiefly feeds in the canopy on fruit and leaves, supplemented by invertebrates.

Usually in pairs or family groups, birds maintain vocal contact and travel between trees, using branches for rest and food searches.
