The bridled African trogon is a medium-sized bird with bright plumage. Males are green on top and red below, while females are more modestly colored in brown and pink tones.
The bridled African trogon differs from other trogons by the special combination of green and red colors in males. It is beneficial for nature because it eats many insects and disperses fruit seeds.
Catching insects in the air and on plants.
