It always amazes me to see a trogon in the United States because I associate this bird with the warmer parts of Latin America, especially Central America. This one was photographed near Portal, Arizona in a riparian area. When they are executing their “barking” song, they are relatively easy to find. When they are quiet, they are difficult to find in spite of their bright red breast.
