Another late night marking gem

Question: How would you recognize a Trumpeter Hornbill?


Student answer: 'It is easy to recognize it because of its thick, black and horny bill'

The difference between male and female students

Today I noticed that all the female students in my class described the colour of an African Hoopoe as 'Cinnamon', all the male students on the other hand, simply called it 'Brown'.



I've always perceived cinnamon as more of a flavour and smell. I'm not quite sure its use as a colour will grow on me.
