Ramphastos Toucans (in Portuguese: Tucano, Spanish: Tucn) are tropical near passerine birds from South America. They are brightly marked and have enormous colourful bills. Toucans are fructivorous (fruit-eating), but will take insects and other small prey. They are arboreal and nest in tree holes laying 2–4 white eggs. Toucans do not migrate.
