Electron platyrhynchum

This Broad-billed Motmot was seen the same day as the Keel-billed Motmot last October in Costa Rica. The two birds are very similar and interestingly enough they were seen within a few hundred yards of one another. I was impressed with how similar the two calls were to each other. I have been told that they were once thought to be the same species.
