One of the most colourful and beautiful birds in Panama is the Keel-billed toucan, Ramphastos sulfuratus. Early in the morning in the rainforest I often hear the froglike sound krre-ek krre-ek krre-ek. The sound awakens my instincts, and when I hear the sound I know I am in the rainforest. It is a good feeling.
Sometimes they come close in for a good photograph. I took this shot through an opening in the rainforest with my 600mm lens. It posed a few minutes before it took off into the wilderness. We very often see the toucan on our rainforest tours (8 days and 13 days tours). Check out the tours in the photo tour program. Best regards Øyvind Martinsen Comments are closed.
