Turquoise-browed Motmot (Eumomota superciliosa) ebird/Clements (2022)
	2893 (1 photos) Turquoise-browed Motmot (Eumomota superciliosa superciliosa) Blåbrynet Motmot ~ Momoto Cejas Azules ~ Turkosbrynad Motmot 2009-04-29 Río Lagartos (yuc), Mexico Seen from behind unmistakable with the blue and black-tipped tail and remiges plus a wide bare tail-shaft before the spatulated tip. Often seen in the open, contrary to Lesson's which is more of a forest species.

Notice how the dark orange color of the vent seems to blend into the dusty green color of the breast and chest. Individual variation or something to do with subspecies?

	2894 (1 photos) Turquoise-browed Motmot (Eumomota superciliosa superciliosa) Blåbrynet Motmot ~ Momoto Cejas Azules ~ Turkosbrynad Motmot 2018-04-28 Camino San Felipe (yuc), Mexico In this part of Mexico it often sits out in the open, on wires. The crossroad before reaching Río Lagartos is an excellent spot to try for it.

Wide bare part of the tail separates it easily from the sympatric Lesson's Motmot.
