About Blue-crowned Motmot on wiki

High up in a tree it sat. Hard to fine except for our guide Herman. This bird is the 150th species I post from my CR trip. Still has a lot to post though. Enjoy the yoputube video.

This is a bird I would have liked to see more off. But on  a trip like this you only have one chance.

The first bird in my Costa Rican birdblog with birds from the trip I made. I have no idea how many I have. But maybe 175. The group as a whole saw and heard 492 spieces in 16 days of birding. If correctly counted by the Swedish guide.
This bird looked a bit different in sunshine and shadow. The photos are mine and I link to sites that show the bird better and tell a little about it as I can´t claim to be an expert. :) I hope this will be useful to somebody apart from me.
