Hornbill on the loose in Hants (1 Viewer)

Hello - I was just sent this image grab that I believe to be of a black-and-while-casqued hornbill that briefly visited a garden in a village on E side of Southampton at lunchtime today - it has moved on, so could turn up anywhere locally soon. The local vet is trying to find out where it might have escaped from. Any sightings appreciated... [I have cropped (poor!) image to fit BF limits.] Thanks!

Update - apparently lost in W Southampton 2 d ago - it's a silvery-cheeked hornbill - hopefully will be recaptured somehow if relocated...
