    Amazonian Motmot

    In my region in the state of São Paulo, even though I can find these fellows quite easily too, I never get them in the open. Apparently that's not the case in the state of Goiás haha. I found them in the open, in the sun light, all the time there. The motmots there are not shy. Sadly most of...

    GOAL!

    I saw this amazonian motmot perched in this old goal-post of this neglected football field in a very small town and I had to take the shot cause this image screams "Brazil", my country. Football, lush green vegetation, colorful bird.

    "Waiting for the light..." (Amazonian Motmot)

    When I arrived at my favorite motmot spot sunday morning, this wonderful fella was sitting there, in total shade of the forest, as they usually do. I sat and waited. As the morning progressed, the sun light came from the side and started to hit some of those branches, and you get these "half...

    Amazonian Motmot

    I spent 6 hours today with my car suck in the mud on a distant dirt road away from any help... was a tough sunday morning to tell you the least LOL. And all because I wanted to go to the spot where I last saw these beauties. The bird that got me into bird photography. Now at the computer...

    Amazonian Motmot couple

    As I was saying in the other upload, found this new place, and lucky me, right at the entrance of the farm, on the dirt road, saw this beautiful couple of Amazonian Momots flirting with eachother. So I finally got a couple decent shots of my favorite bird!

    Today's morning walk 02 (Amazonian Motmot)

    For the first time in 2 years, I was able to see the Amazonian Motmot right at the border of the walking/running track, at the park. To be able to see them, I usually have to get deep into the bushes, near the small river that runs behind the park, and then get lucky that one is there. So it...

    Amazonian Motmot having a meal

    Again, something always in the way of my momot shots LOL. But I like this one, gives a real feel of how much deep in the bushes it was. He was enjoying some sort of caterpilar.

    morning couple (Amazonian Motmot)

    That morning was very cloudy, about to rain, when I saw these two from a distance. The lighting was so bad for a photo, but I'm glad I could capture the moment. My favorite bird species, and one I can never get a "perfect" picture, even though I've ran into them a few times before. I hope I...

    Amazonian Motmot

    This is the bird that got me into birding years go, my favorite bird. Near the park next to my home, where I do my morning walks, there's a short trail that runs next to a small river. When I'm really lucky, I can see this motmot there in the morning, but it's always on a shadow, deep...

    I finally caught this bird out in the open. He had been skulking around in the shade for days, just 100 meters from the beach.

    Blue-crowned Motmot

    "Momotus momota", taken near Salento, Quindio, Colombia, at an altitude of approx. 1600 M. on a newly established Nature Reserve Kasaguadua, the altitude suggests that perhaps it might also be "Momotus aequatorialis"
