Hoopoe Highlights: Discovering the Cute and Crested Birdorable

Birdorable Hoopoe

The Hoopoe is a striking crested bird that lives across Europe, Asia and Africa. They are named for their call, 'oop-oop-oop'. At rest their crest lays flat but in our extra cute Birdorable version, the crest is erect and expanded. This Hoopoe is the 78th bird species to be added to Birdorable. Great gifts here for fans of this beautiful bird.
