Turquoise-browed Motmot (Eumomota superciliosa) - 15Apr2019 & 19Apr2019

On this day at the Muyil Archeologic site I lifered multiple times, but this bird was my last and best. I ended up seeing many more, but the first time is usually the most memorable.  Not only is this species especially conspicuous in coloration, it has a crazy sounding call and draws attention by swaying its tail like a pendulum.


Here is one from later in the trip that was more photogenic, this time at Chichen Itza!
