π Resplendent Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno) The male Resplendent Quetzal is a stunning iridescent green with a red belly and an exceptionally long, flowing green tail train. Females are duller with a shorter tail. Quetzals inhabit montane cloud forests from Southern Mexico to Western Panama. Generally shy and quiet, they become more vocal and perform elaborate displays during the breeding season. They mainly eat fruit, especially wild avocados. Two subspecies are recognised. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Near Threatened (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: The Resplendent Quetzal is the National Bird of Guatemala. Its image is on the country's flag and coat of arms, and the national currency is called the Quetzal. It is the only bird in the world with the word "Resplendent" in its common name! π·: Photo by Drosera74 via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/quetzal-bird-nature-colorful-9850089/ VBLA

Resplendent Quetzal
We had a beautiful couple of hours at Curi-Canche Reserve in Costa Rica. I hope I can make it back one day to spend more time.

Had the honour of seeing one of these beautiful birds in Costa Rica in November - a moment I'll never forget!
Decided to stick some acrylic onto canvas in a rough Quetzal-esq shape. It's full of imperfections, but that's ok. I enjoyed myself.
