Turquoise-browed Motmot - Laguna de Apoyo, NI      The national bird of Nicaragua with breakfast. An early morning walk along the road around the Laguna de Apoyo had many birds, but these guys were common along the way. I am only guessing, but this looks like a cicada to me. It appeared that some of the birds had longer tails than the others and slightly different degrees of color.  Either way, the motmots definitely have one of the most vibrant color schemes in the land.              Michael W Klotz - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
