The Rufous-capped Motmot lives alone or in pairs<br />

at medium tree-height in the thick of <strong>de</strong>nse forest. It<br />

is most active at dawn and dusk. This species often<br />

spends long periods perched on low branches, where<br />

it will stay motionless except for its tail, which it flicks<br />

incessantly from si<strong>de</strong> to si<strong>de</strong> and up and <strong>do</strong>wn.<br />

It eats insects and larvae, slugs, small vertebrates<br />

and sometimes fruit. It hunts above the un<strong>de</strong>rgrowth,<br />

but will also pick from the ground. Sometimes it congregates<br />

as a mixed flock.<br />

The pair will dig a gallery up to two meters long in<br />

animal burrows, where they take turns incubating their<br />

two or three eggs and tending the brood.<br />

cloudy, rainy days or in the darker folds of the forest.<br />
