Outstanding photo of this one. What a long tail he has, do all Motmots have a tail that long? My bird was an Elegant Trogon, took 4 years to find one after I started looking, but it got me hooked. Sorry about the car getting stuck, hope no damage was incurred.

I am truly sorry about your being stuck in the mud Roynato! This is a brilliant frontal close-up of this large motmot. I can't think of a better species to get one hook on bird photography. TFS!

I've had that happen twice - quite stressful! But an excellent result, well done!
