Momotus momot
large bird, fairly friendly and tolerant of humans
cloudforest, 2100m
I spotted the blue-crowned motmot in a few places but was able to get the best photos on top of a viewpoint in the small mountain town of Salento. I was fairly close and the bird didn't seem to mind at all.

Dandoucette: aunque mis fotos no son tan espectaculeres como las suyas, creo que se pueden compartir.
