Amazonian Motmot (Momotus momota) - 15Aug2022

The Amazonian Motmot was also the beneficiary of the Blue-crowned Motmot split which made 6 new species from one.  That being said, they probably don't care about nomenclature, so maybe it is I who is the beneficiary.  As the name implies, this species inhabits the humid lowlands of the Amazon Basin.  We had ours in the Pantanal in Brazil.
