Turquoise-browed Motmot

Eumomota superciliosa

Türkisbrauenmotmot ...aus der Familie der Sägeracken!

Wikipedia: In Costa Rica it is known as momoto cejiceleste or the far-less flattering pájaro bobo ("foolish bird"), owing to its tendency to allow humans to come very near it without flying away.

The turquoise-browed motmot is a well-known bird in its range and has been chosen as the national bird of both El Salvador and Nicaragua
