According to Wikipedia: Hoopoes are widespread in Europe, Asia and North Africa, as well as Sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar.  They migrate from all but the southernmost part of their range to the tropics in winter.  Their habitat is open cultivated ground with short grass or bare patches. They spend much time on the ground hunting insects and worms.  The Hoopoe is 25-29cm long, with a 44-48cm wingspan.  This black, white and pink bird is quite unmistakable. The song is a trisyllabic “oop-oop-oop”, which gives rise to its English and scientific names.
