The Malabar trogon (Harpactes fasciatus) is a stunningly colored bird with brilliant colors.
The male’s head is black, but the underbelly is crimson red.
The female is more brownish and less spectacular than the male, as is typical with a lot of bird species.
The diet of the Malabar trogon includes insects and fruit.
They live in Sri Lankan and peninsular Indian forests.
The birds make a low, gruff noise that is only audible if you are close by.
Despite their brilliant colors, they’re difficult to spot because they frequently cling still on hidden branches.
Their gorgeous color is like something out of the latest fashion week!
