Help to identify a wild bird


Recommended Posts

I can't find a photo or identity of the bird I saw yesterday. It was high in a leafless jacaranda tree in a forest.  Between the size of a robin and a crow with a tail much longer than it's body.  The head and back were gray with a white throat and upper belly.  The wings were rufous like a robin. The tail, when it flew, fanned out with a small point in the center of it's tail; certainly not a long trailing tail.  Too far away to see any color on it head.  I've looked under trogons and even stretched for parrots.  Don't know if it's in transit or a local, although I've never seen a bird like this in 15 years.  Help, por favor?  TIA
