I shot a trogon the first I have seen here

All three species I have seen before but was [[strikethrough]]not[[/strikethrough]] never able to bag one. Farther on along the trail thru the woods I saw 2 fine cock jungle fowl on the path. From the trail I saw a herd of Semnopithecus  or langurs feeding on the beans of a sort
