Birding Portal, AZ - Searching for the AWESOME Elegant Trogon

🌵 Exploring Portal, Arizona and lots more birds to add to our life list as the 350 Bird Challenge continues! We go in search of the Elegant Trogon as we climb along one of the many sky island canyons. The rest of our Arizona series can be watched via this playlist:    • Arizona 2025   Check out our website: https://BritHikesOntario.com Lots of good stuff here, including the list of birds we've seen so far. CORRECTION(s): 1) This video was filmed in 2025. In 2026, the name of the Elegant Trogon was changed to Coppery-tailed Trogon. 2) We accidentally counted Willet as a new bird. We already saw it back in Sedona. The count will be fixed in a future episode. Thanks to Nehan for spotting this mistake. 3) The Jay shown at around 4m11s is a Woodhouse's Scrub Jay and not a Mexican Jay. We will correct the count in a future episode. Thanks to TrungNguyen-pi1kk for spotting this mistake and for providing the tip that a Woodhouse's Scrub Jay has a white line above the eye, which a Mexican Jay lacks. 4) The Wren shown at Cave Creek Ranch is a Northern House Wren, not a Bewick's. Thanks to Lori Conrad (of Portal!). BritHikesOntario is a loss-making endeavour and a labour of love. Our members help keep the channel's lights on!
