    I have yet to see one of them. They used to breed at Mount Magazine State Park which is not too far from me here in Arkansas but it seems that the Park has not maintained the habitat and so they stopped coming before we moved here in 2022.

    What a great video. SE AZ has been on my radar for several years now but I have yet to make it. Cool encounter with the trogon. I have seen one Elegant Trogon during our birding trip to Honduras in 2018 and other trogons there and in Colombia and Ecuador. They are interesting birds and quite colorful. You have a lovely family. It is neat that you can be together on at least some of your trips.

    My wife and I vacationed in the Puerto Vallarta area around Christmas time in 2003 and in Cabo San Lucas in 2005. Unfortunately at the time we weren't birders yet. We birded in Ecuador in 2016, 2018 and 2023; Honduras in 2018; Dominican Republic in 2019 and Colombia in 2020. I wish I felt safe birding in Mexico but I don't at the moment. What are your thoughts about safety? You obviously go so you must feel adequately safe.
