The Hunt for Red....



The Female Red Nape Trogon










The Male Red Nape Trogon





I had been searching for this species for close to 3 years. The other species Scarlet rump Trogon was easier to see in Panti forest. Despite many attempts, the best I did was hear them calling but yesterday, I did not hear them calling and instead I accidentally saw a Male at close range and low perch. I made a few shots before I went out to call my friends in to get their shots. One of my friends saw the female which was blocked from my angle. It was a happy sight for the 3 of us.
