Trogons are South East Asian cousins of the Central American (corrected) Quetzals and are equally sought after by twichers.
Like Quetzals, they are very shy, elusive and confined to deep undisturbed forests and when one decides to sit on a clean perch right in front of you, it offers perhaps one of the richest & most rewarding of all bird photography experiences.
This one is called a Scarlet Rumped Trogon
Location : Lowland dipterocarp forest, Middle Range, Malaysia
D200, AFS 600mm f4, Wimberley II on a G1325.
1/15s f/8.0 at ISO 400 on Aperture Priority.
Hope you guys like this one!
