My December trip to Honduras was the perfect chance to get some really cool video footage of birds I don’t often get to see. A long hike up into the lesser explored areas at the edge of Pico Bonito National Park was a highlight, not only for the interesting species we saw, but also for the amazing looks we got at some crowd favorites like this Keel-billed Motmot, a lifer for me. In addition to the one bird that was so cooperative for digiscoping, there were two other Keel-billed Motmots in the area that you can hear calling in the background.
