Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Red Billed Hornbill - LP Zoo

I am a red billed hornbill bird,
With billing at Lincoln Park Zoo.
I come from Africa I've heard.
Munch on plants and insects I do.
Named for my long and curved red bill.
My head and underparts be white,
Wings and long tail with a gray fill.
I stand about a foot in height.
A tree hole in the preferred place,
To lay three to six white eggs there.
The bill is used to pack the space,
So that new chicks get proper care.

In the Lion King film I be
Zazu - do you remember me?
