Blue-tailed Trogon (Trogon comptus)

This humid rainforest speciality obliged on our second day in Ecuador at the superb West Andean reserve at Maquipucuna on the main trail which was probably one of the best walks of the whole tour. It's the closest pristine cloud forest to Quito and must not be missed...besides, I am crazy about Trogons!

You've put up two lovely pictures of the beautiful trogon. Very well done Chris.

Such a rare visitor to the Gallery too - your two images have actually doubled what was in the Gallery before LOL.
