CLOSED: Please help with the identification of this bird

Brandon, FL

I'm an avid bird watcher and often receive images of birds in one form or another. For Xmas I received a paperweight with an image of a very striking bird. I've searched the internet but can't come up with a name. I did find another photo of the bird but it also was without a name. Can anyone help?
Thanks!!!

That's a Hoopoe Native to the Old World...not found anywhere in North America.

Thanks OldNed! I thought I'd seen photos of it before but just couldn't bring it back. Thanks again!!!

Yep, Hoopoe. Seen a few over here, they're very nice birds!
