This is the amusing moment a playful hornbill was spotted sitting on the back of a motorcycle.

Manao, a great Indian hornbill, was seen perched on the pillion of a parked two-wheeler at Thong Phan Phum National Park in Kanchanaburi, Thailand, on January 3.

Footage shows the bird preening as it basks in the sun.

Park staff said Manao is not afraid of people and frequently comes down to interact.

Some hornbills may become accustomed to human presence and appear more docile in controlled environments like sanctuaries.

However, they can become defensive if they feel threatened or if their nests are disturbed.
