Hi Janine,

Great pic! Your bird is a Silvery-cheeked Hornbill (Ceratogymna brevis), a bird photographed in Florida only once before.

The previous record was from the Deering Estate at Miami on 13 Oct 2004 (http://www.tropicalaudubon.org/tasboard/messages/6770.html) with a photo at (http://www.tropicalaudubon.org/tasboard/messages/6783.html). There are other observations of Silvery-cheeked Hornbill in Florida, all from Miami-Dade County.

Thanks for sharing your photo.

Best regards,
