"The Peko Peko is eight feet long from the tip of its beak to the end of its long, beautiful tail. It flies gracefully but has difficulty walking on its short legs. (The Peko Peko has) a very powerful jaw with which it cracks large coconut-size nuts. It also has claws on its wings, like the South American hoatzin, which helps the bird to move around in trees."
