What does TROGON mean in Scrabble?
noun
zoology
A brightly coloured tropical bird of the family Trogonidae, related to the quetzal.
Trogons live mostly in tropical forests of the Americas, Africa and Asia and are known for lustrous, iridescent plumage in green, red and blue. Most trogons perch quietly and dart out to snatch fruit or insects rather than flying long distances, which makes their bright colours easy to spot against the forest green. The quetzal, famous in Central American culture, is simply one especially long-tailed member of the trogon family.
