Musophaga violacea
The Violet Turaco has predominantly deep violet-blue plumage, with a dark, glossy appearance shared by adult males and females. Its back, breast, wings, and long tail are largely uniform in color, while crimson primary flight feathers form conspicuous panels when the wings open. A chestnut-red feathered crown contrasts with the yellow bare frontal shield above the bill.
