Violaceous Trogon
Trogon violaceus
Violaceous Trogon adult males have a violet-blue head and upper breast, a metallic-green back, and a bright yellow belly, giving the plumage sharply contrasting color fields. The dark wings carry fine whitish vermiculation, the outer tail feathers show black-and-white barring, and a narrow white band separates the breast from the yellow underparts. A conspicuous yellow ring of bare orbital skin surrounds each dark eye, contrasting with the adjacent violet-blue facial feathers.
