American pygmy kingfisher
Chloroceryle aenea
17.1985, -89.588
Field Notes
Description:
The smallest of the American kingfishers. Males has a rufous belly and the female a green breast band. Juveniles lack both
Habitat:
In one of Tikal's mayan era reservoirs
Notes:
We watched the male for a long time and then he disappeared into the reeds and (we thought) flew back out. Looking at the photos, I see that it was a juvenile that darted out into a patch of tall grasses on an island in the middle.
