Graceful Black-throated Trogon

Красиво🏆🏆

very beautiful bird!

Fernando, this shot’s got a real quiet charm. The bird’s perched just right—steady, alert, with that bright yellow chest popping against the soft greens of the background. The light’s even, nothing harsh, and the focus is clean on the trogon, letting the tail’s black-and-white pattern stand out without stealing the show.

I like how the branches frame it just enough—not too tight, not too loose. It feels natural, like you were there, quiet, waiting for the bird to settle.

One thing I’m curious about: did you shoot this in the morning light? The way the colors are lit makes me think it was early, before the sun got too high.

Molto bella!
