Elegant Trogon continued..

Hey all,

Its been another busy day of nest searching, and this afternoon we will be working on more vegetation transects so I will just post a quick photo. You may recall I posted a not so good photo of the Elegant trogon, a parot-like bird that is very noisy and quite handsome. I had not heard the male calling recently, so I figured my photo opportunities were over. This morning however, as we were looking at a hummingbird nest, the Trogon landed on a branch about 3 m away from me. So, here he is, in all his Elegance, the trogon.
