On this page of the guide to Horizon Forbidden West you'll learn how to obtain the Golden Toucans ornament.
You'll find the ruins on an island in the western part of the map. To reach it you must first complete the Faro's Tomb main quest. You can't get there by just swimming. You must use the boat you receive during the quest.
Start your exploration of the ruins by climbing up the building wall. There are many climbable yellow handles on it.
At the top of the ruins you'll see an offline elevator. You need an energy cell to operate it. You must find one and insert it into a slot.
The cell is nearby, you're bound to spot it when walking to the right of the elevator. The cell is unfortunately damaged, and this short trip will be the last straw for it. Before you can insert it, it will run dry.
You must find another one. First enter a small room. You'll see a ventilation shaft you can open and go through.
On the other side of the shaft are some plants blocking your path. You can easily destroy them with your tools. For this you need the Igniter, obtainable much earlier on from a story quest.
The next part is much easier. Grab the cell and use it to power the elevator. Then ride it to the next floor.
At the bottom, start by blowing up the wall with the Igniter. This will open the way forward. There are many such walls in this area. Detonating them will make navigation much easier.
Your main objective is the crate you must drag to the designated place. Grab it and pull it closer to the shore. Remember you can't move the chest in water, which means you must use your hook instead.
Swim further to move the chest to the left side of the ruins. You need it there.
You can open yet another passage here, this time with the Vine Cutter. You obtain it in the Seeds of the Past main quest.
You must move the crate so that you can climb it and shoot the lock holding the ladder in place. After lowering the ladder swim up to it and go up.
Once again, you must start climbing. You'll reach a key necessary for getting this ornament.
Grab the key, then head to the door. You must enter a code - 2109109. You'll learn it by exploring the ruins and examining datapoints.
Behind the door you'll find the ornament - pick it up to complete this activity.
