It is relatively tame and inactive. This small, colorful bird has bright green plumage, a red belly, a yellow beak, a gray throat and chest, a long dark blue tail with white markings, and golden eyes. Its call is a high-pitched sound similar to that of a pigeon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Distribution :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Haiti, it is observed in the Massif de la Hotte, La Selle, and in La Visite National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Habitat :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It inhabits humid, dry, and pine forests, at elevations ranging from 500 to 3,000 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Threats :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several bird species in Haiti are threatened, including the Red-bellied Trogon (kalson wouj), the national emblem.
