Broad-billed Motmot: Tico Rainforest B&B, Sarapiqui, Costa Rica, December 2024 — On my first day at Tico Rainforest B&B, Victor, my host, took me out on his little patch of second growth rainforest to look for birds. We found lots! One of the highlights was this Broad-billed Motmot who had caught a rather large flying insect and was having difficulty both subduing it, and getting it down. I have snipit of video showing it beating it against the branch. It eventually got it swallowed and I hope it made up in nutrients what it cost the Motmot to catch and eat it.
