The hotel had a chairlift to the top of a hill. At the base there were a number of hummingbird feeders, where this photo was taken.
I am not certain about the ID, could use help.

I first saw him from a distance on the path, as the racquet tip of his tail was not evident, I wasn't sure what he was. With my slow approach he flew of into the shrubs on the side of the path. That was when I knew I had a Motmot. It took some persistence to get clear shots. Luckily, for some reason Motmots don't scare easily.

I saw this fellowat a distance land at the edge of a swampy area. Having previously had a glimpse of a hawk in this area, I approached carefully and started shooting as soon as a clear shot was available. Good thing, he didn't hang around like the Trogons and Motmots.

The pathways of the hotel grounds were a birders paradise. On our return from a steamy walk this fellow was overhead, and not particularly shy.
